LEONARD AND LEA
“Leonard and Lea”: A beautifully illustrated hardcover edition for 6- to 10-year-old girls and boys, available in English and German.
The adventure of Leonard and Loulou continues—this time, with a new friend by their side.
Leonard is laughed at by his classmates, and Lea, the new girl in school, is quietly pushed aside. Both children carry that familiar sting of being left out… until two unexpected companions step in: Loulou, the gentle little cat, and Lo, the big, brave dog. Together, they show Leonard and Lea what it feels like when respect finally replaces ridicule—and how courage grows when you’re no longer alone.
In her second children’s book, Swiss author Esther Buerki touches the hearts of young readers and their parents once again. With great sensitivity, she opens up the difficult topic of exclusion and bullying, helping families find the words to talk about feelings that often stay hidden.
“Leonard and Lea” stands beautifully on its own, even though it continues the world introduced in the first story. The themes are familiar—bullying, self-confidence, friendship, and the gentle wisdom of animals—but this new tale goes even deeper, more tender, more comforting.
A wonderful read for sensitive children aged 6 to 10, this book offers a safe space to understand hurt, discover courage, and feel the quiet power of being seen and accepted.
The Bulgarian artist and art professor Teodora Puncheva brings the story to life with more than a dozen enchanting A4 illustrations, making this second volume even more visually captivating than the first.
