High in the Clouds: A Brave Reading Journey for Children Aged 11 and Up
At the 33rd Freiburg Children's Literature Festival, Wiebke Strank takes young listeners into the airy floors of imagination. The reading of High in the Clouds combines children's literature, humor, and an exciting exploration of an unusual high-rise building.
A Story About Courage, Friendship, and Curiosity
Jule is seen as brave and cool. Rock, on the other hand, is shy and in love with her. When the mysterious neighbor G. Ott is not home, the two begin a search through the fifteen-story building. Along the way, they meet very different people and discover that behind each apartment lies a unique story.
Literature That Encourages Children to Think
High in the Clouds offers a child-friendly access to themes like friendship, infatuation, self-confidence, and dealing with different personalities. The event stimulates imagination and supports an age-appropriate learning experience around language, emotions, and social development.
Wiebke Strank Reads at the Young Theater
The author Wiebke Strank studied Scandinavian languages, English, and German studies and has worked in Tübingen, England, and Japan, among other places. At the University of Kiel, she trained teachers with migration backgrounds for many years. Her first children's book High in the Clouds was awarded the Kirsten-Boie Prize for promotion.
A Family Experience with Imagination and Learning Fun
The reading provides children with shared time, children's literature on stage, and new impulses for their own reading. Between high-rise corridors, doorbell signs, and extraordinary neighbors, wonder, curiosity, and a lively sense of community arise. For families, the festival offers a safe space where children can discover literature and discuss important everyday topics.
