About the Book
After Queen Maza gave birth to her normal-looking child in the village named Beauty-a place populated entirely by deformed characters-she and King Shine were ordered to cast the child out from fear he would be their downfall. Tears fell for the first time on the sacred soil, and the Wind and River heard the sorrowful cries. Moved by compassion, they decided to take the child in and raise him as their own.
Under their playful guidance, he learned to care for the river's waves, to soar on swirling gusts of wind, and to keep everything pure and clean. Yet his new guardians sensed one final lesson remained. They named him Windter-a name whispered by both wind and river-and carried him to the Great Tree. Windter climbed to its highest point and sat above the world, watching all below with wide, curious eyes. There, he discovered how best to care for the air, the waters, and the lands.
So begins the extraordinary adventures of Windter, whose journey teaches children that beauty exists only in the eyes of the beholder, and that by caring for our planet's air, water, and land, we honor the gifts of life itself. WINDTER shines for every reader!
TRANSLATION
Nachdem Königin Maza in dem Dorf namens Schönheit - einem Ort, der ausschließlich von deformierten Wesen bewohnt war - ein normal aussehendes Kind zur Welt gebracht hatte, wurden sie und König Shine gezwungen, das Kind auszusetzen, aus Angst, es könnte ihr Untergang sein. Zum ersten Mal fielen Tränen auf den heiligen Boden, und Wind und Fluss hörten die klagenden Schreie. Von Mitgefühl bewegt, beschlossen sie, das Kind bei sich aufzunehmen und wie ihr eigenes aufzuziehen.
Unter ihrer verspielten Führung lernte es, sich um die Wellen des Flusses zu kümmern, auf wirbelnden Windböen zu gleiten und alles rein und sauber zu halten. Doch seine neuen Wächter spürten, dass ihm noch eine letzte Lektion fehlte. Sie nannten ihn Windter - ein Name, den sowohl der Wind als auch der Fluss flüsterten - und trugen ihn zum Großen Baum. Windter kletterte bis zu dessen höchstem Punkt und saß hoch oben über der Welt, betrachtete alles unter sich mit großen, neugierigen Augen. Dort entdeckte er, wie er am besten für die Luft, das Wasser und das Land sorgen konnte.
So beginnen die außergewöhnlichen Abenteuer von Windter, dessen Reise Kindern zeigt, dass Schönheit nur im Auge des Betrachters liegt - und dass wir durch die Fürsorge für Luft, Wasser und Erde die Geschenke des Lebens selbst ehren. WINDTER leuchtet für jede Leserin und jeden Leser!
