Miffy's pen friendMelanieis coming to visit from far away. Miffy is very excited and can't wait to introduce her to family and play lots of fun games with her. Award-winning UK poet, Tony Mitton, has worked closely with Dick Bruna's Dutch publisher to create new translations for the classic Miffy stories that are true to the books' original voice, and yet have a contemporary feel to the language that makes them appealing to the modern young audience. The translations beautifully convey the warmth and friendliness of the original Dutch whilst maintaining a style that is inimitably Miffy.… (more)

NBD|Biblion:
Nijntje heeft een correspondentievriendin in een ver land: Nina. Op een dag komt ze met het vliegtuig en blijft logeren. Nina ziet er hetzelfde uit als Nijntje, maar is bruin van kleur. Nijntje zou ook wel bruin willen zijn. Vierkant prentenboekje met op de linkerbladzijde tekst in rijm; op de rechterbladzijde, de bekende eenvoudige, zwartomlijnde tekeningen. Hoofdzakelijk blauw en rood ingekleurd, met een paar primaire steunkleuren. De tekst is eenvoudig van stijl; de rijmvorm is abcb. Schreefloze letter, vet gedrukt, zonder hoofdletters en punten (wel komma's en dubbele punten). Veel wit tussen de vierregelige tekst. Vriendschap tussen 'bruin' en 'wit' wordt via de Nijntjes op eenvoudige wijze verteld. Dat Nijntje Nina's huidskleur zo mooi vindt, krijgt meer aandacht dan nodig is. Goed te gebruiken voor peuters en jonge kleuters wanneer het gaat over verschil in uiterlijk (discriminatie). Het is misschien wel vreemd dat Nina zonder moeder of vader bij Nijntje komt logeren. Vanaf ca. 2 jaar. ( )
