De kleine Johannes

In a tucked‑away old house brimming with hidden rooms, stairways and secret nooks, a curious little boy turns everyday corners into whole worlds. He christens each attic shelf as the “caterpillar cellar,” each garden patch a “raspberry hill” or “strawberry valley,” and even the pond with its drifting white lilies becomes a personal paradise where clouds gather like the mouth of a hidden cave. His imagination stretches far beyond the garden’s fence, teasing him with visions of flight and unknown depths that linger at the edge of his daydreams.

The boy’s companions—his caring father, a sprightly dog named Presto and a dignified cat called Simon—anchor his adventures, each offering a different blend of loyalty and mystery. As he drifts between the rhythmic ticking of the hallway clock and the quiet hush of his dark bedroom, he balances wonder with a gentle sense of responsibility, ever‑watchful of the delicate line between the ordinary and the extraordinary. This tender portrait of childhood curiosity invites listeners to wander through a labyrinth where every shadow hides a story waiting to be named.
