Grimm’s Zonkey Tales – Carotto Moves in (vol. I)
How Grimm found his Carotto
Bookseller Grimm has recently become the owner of the Book Box shop in his village. This is a good thing, because he adores books, and sometimes even writes one himself. However, he occasionally feels a bit lonely in his store, but fortunately for him, that changes when, a little zonkey suddenly appears in his shop. (Yes, these animals really do exist.) ‘I’m Carotto, and I’ve been looking for you’, it declares, pulling a book out of his suitcase. Grimm’s Zonkey Tales is printed on it. “We will have adventures together, and you can write them down in here,” explains the little zonkey. And so Carotto moves in with Grimm and livens up his house! Because with such a little zonkey, even everyday things like riding a bike suddenly become adventures.
