If you're looking for a book that will spark your child's imagination while also intriguing you, this is the right choice.

One Hole, Many Interpretations – Review of Øyvind Torseter's Book

Let's start with the fact that the hole reveals itself to us on the cover, much to the delight of the youngest readers, in a very tangible way. So, before we even begin reading, our little one is already quite intrigued by its presence. It's worth allowing them to take a good look at the hole, feel it, and peer through it. 

What the hole is, everyone can see.

The story begins when the protagonist, whose name we do not know, moves into a new apartment. In the hustle and bustle of unpacking, the nameless character initially doesn't notice IT. IT, the titular hole, may seem innocent, but it will cause our hero a lot of trouble.

The mischievous hole constantly moves around, surprising him with its presence in the kitchen, the bedroom, or the bathroom. Its elusiveness clearly bothers him, eventually leading to drastic measures...

 

One Hole, Many Possibilities

The Hole is primarily a picture story. It features only a few dialogues, which makes our adventure even more intriguing. The indisputable best part of the book is the ability to create your own stories. Every subsequent viewing can be an opportunity to weave a new tale together with your child. The protagonist's behavior and the hole's antics can have ever-new circumstances, although they will unfold in a certain way.

For Whom?

For the young and old, the curious and inquisitive.
