Honeycombed Mystery

Obviously these honeycomb structures are some kind of greenhouse. I don’t know how they work since they are open on the ground and open to the top. I also don’t know for what kind of crop. The bad news is: it is a kind of synthetic material or plastic. The good news is: the material is usually rolled up when no longer needed and brought out again the year after.

Peter and Ida

Reading the prompt I immediately thought of the children’s book above. It is orginally a Swedish book, written by Grethe Fagerström and illustrated by Gunilla Hansson, published in 1979. It’s the story of Peter and Ida whose mother is expecting a baby which the children name “Minimum” because it is not yet born. It’s a very open, educational way to talk to children about – not the bird and the bees but the egg and the sperm and the body parts surrounding this topic. It’s been a perennial favourite in Germany and Sweden and possibly other countries.
