Dedicated to the 800th anniversary of the founding of the city of Tartu, this children’s book invites young readers to take a stroll through the streets of Tartu—to pause on the Angel’s Bridge (Inglisild), peer down into the Kassitoome valley, admire the houses in Tähtvere and the courtyards of Supilinn, and watch the flow of the Emajõgi River—ultimately discovering their own mystical and mysterious Tartu.
The stories, written by Juhani Püttsepp and rooted in historical fact, are accompanied by cheerful and witty illustrations by Gundega Muzikante.
The publication of this book was supported by the City of Tartu and the Cultural Endowment of Estonia.
