Inhaltsangabe

A Russian popular tale. At the shy fly's house, there is a blackberry cake, seven plates, seven chairs, seven animals ready to have an afternoon snack. There's no room for anyone else… but then someone knocks at the door. The shy fly got tired of buzzing around aimlessly and built a house where he could invite the other forest dwellers. He baked a blackberry cake, and set out seven stools and seven plates. The wonderful smell wafted through the trees, and soon seven other animals appeared, both great and small. «The shy fly’s house» is an adaptation of the popular Russian tale recovered by Aleksandr Afanásiev. The protagonists introduce readers to a fun game of numbers and sizes, rhymes, repetitions and rhythms, all elements of the oral tradition. Using “explosive, almost fluorescent colours”, Sergio Mora creates weird and wonderful creatures, with plenty of humour and expressiveness. An cumulative tale that plays with phonetics; a story to be read and told, that grows in intensity as each page passes until it reaches a surprising ending.
