Nemi and the Secret of the Forest

One day, on a stroll through the forest, Nemi encounters the Hehmann, a creature with a tangled beard of leaves and weathered face of wood. He is the memory and the knowledge of the forest, but he is suffering, because hardly anyone takes note of the wilderness anymore. Will it completely disappear if no one thinks about it anymore? Nemi takes pity on him and begins to collect words of nature, and draw plants and animals. But will that be enough to save nature?
Wieland Freund‘s wonderfully told tale is accompanied by Hanna Jung‘s magical illustrations.
