The Story of the Blue Planet

On the Blue Planet, there are no adults; it is inhabited by children who do whatever they please, and no one tells them how to live. One day, a mysterious man lands on the children's planet, and wonders begin to happen. The world-renowned tale by Icelandic author Andri Snær Magnason starts as an innocent fairy tale and grows into a philosophical parable about the modern world. Why can't one always be happy? Is it good if all desires begin to be fulfilled? What is a howl? Why do some have everything, while others have nothing? The book has received a record number of awards in Iceland and abroad, including the British National Book Award, the Janusz Korczak International Prize, the American International Award 'Green Planet', and was recently chosen as the best children's book in China. 'The Story of the Blue Planet' has been published in more than 35 countries around the world and has been staged in several children's theaters in different countries.
