Three children's books by Hannu Mäkelä (b. 1943), Finnish poet, prose writer, editor-in-chief of the "Otava" publishing house, are hereby gathered between one cover. The author's children's books are multi-layered, the youngest readers-listeners perhaps primarily observe the actions of familiar animals, school-age children are interested in adventures where they can identify with child characters, children of dialect age enjoy Mäkelä's humor, and adults are attracted by his mildly skeptical life observations and literary reminiscences.
