Scarf Tale

by Krisztina Rita Molnár • illustrated by Viktória Bogdán

Scarf Tale meanders through time as a scarf knitted from long, multicoloured threads. For children, it is incredible that once grandfather and grandmother were children too. There was time when they were also mischievous and when they fell in love.

Grandmother’s hair is silver clew, grandfather’s pockets are full of maps.

Grandmother knits a scarf, grandfather shows where the grater pasque flower grows.

The love between grandparents and grandchildren may be the most peaceful – this relationship, keeping you warm through time, what Viktória Bogdán and Krisztina Rita Molnár’s Scarf Tale is about.

“But she promised to knit for me a long and warm scarf for winter.”
