A masterpiece that still enchants

'Don't think about it any more, I won't tell you anyway. That day the red swan flew. Only that day. And then your grandfather lost him. These things happen to boys, it's quite normal really. Boys lose things.'

A beautiful bound reissue of Sjoerd Kuypers enchanting masterpiece The Red Swan.

From an old woman, Jacob hears that his grandfather can only be cured if the red wooden swan he lost as a boy is found.

Jakob goes on a quest in the forest his grandfather told him about and ends up in a fantastic world of bloodcurdling adventure. All of grandpa's stories turn out to be true.
