A reading that creates closeness
Between Konrad-Adenauer-Anlage and the downtown library unfolds a literary experience that does not rely on grand gestures but on voice, rhythm, and imagination. Heidi Leenen combines language and music in her readings into a warm reading atmosphere that directly reaches young listeners. Her work stands for child-friendly language art and a clear educational idea: children should not only hear literature but feel it. ([heidileenen.de](https://www.heidileenen.de/))
The book: Diversity as a poetic force
The Little Glitter Flower tells of a crow, a squirrel, and a special bloom that fosters friendship over a summer and initiates change in the autumn. The Vermes publishing house describes the picture book as a tale about uniqueness, consideration, farewell, and new beginnings; complemented by the song Glitter Happiness. This turns a reading hour into a small workshop for empathy and cultural education. ([vermes-verlag.com](https://www.vermes-verlag.com/die-kleine-glitzerblume))
