Poland is a beautiful country with a big coastline along the Baltic Sea
and the huge Masurian lake district, Oliver.
In summertime in Poland, children spend their time at the beach
to play in the waves and build sandcastles.
Lots of kids also go to the mountains in the summer to play in the fresh air.
The mountains in Poland are called the Polish Tatras. There you can go hiking
and you can have adventures in the forests.
Who do you know in your family who can tell you more about summer in Poland? Maybe Mum has old photos from when she was a child.
What did she enjoy most as a child during the summer?

Are you curious about winter in Poland?
Winter in Poland is cold and snowy, Oliver:
In the cities, the children go ice-skating or they take
their sledge and enjoy a ride in one of the hilly parks.
And in the mountains, you have many popular skiing regions, where people enjoy
their holidays or their weekends catching snowflakes and building snowmen. Can Mum tell you more about her winter experiences
when she was a child?

What do you think Poles like to eat?
Poland can be proud of the country's traditional folk dance, Mazurka.
It is danced at a lively tempo and characterized by stamping feet and clicking heels. More than 50 steps exist for that dance! Can you imagine this, Oliver?
The very famous Polish composer, Frederic Chopin, wrote countless Mazurkas,
which people can dance along to. Maybe Mum can play one to you and show you some steps?

Many, many years ago Mum came into this world. This was a long time before you were born, Oliver! Mum was born as you were, but she was not born in Switzerland, where you live now.
Mum was born in Poland, which is a different country.
Let´s find out more about this wonderful place because, in a way,
a part of you also comes from Poland.

How far away is Poland? With a car, you need up to 15 hours!
This is like going to bed and sleeping a full night.
Wow… This is very, very long.
You would have to take long breaks during the drive to eat, sleep and play, Oliver!

It’s much easier to get there with

There is another difference between
Poland and Switzerland: the money!
When you are out shopping, you’ve probably seen
the coins and banknotes used in Switzerland. They are called Swiss Franc.

In Poland, the money is called Zloty and it looks different.
Does Mum have some Polish coins to show you?
Polish children put Zloty in their piggy banks!
Have you ever seen any of this stuff, Oliver?
This is the equipment used for playing some of
Poland’s favourite sports.
All over the country, children love to play
football or volleyball.
Another typical and very exciting sport is ski jumping.
The courageous ski jumpers ski down a very high ramp and have to jump as far as possible with skis on their feet.
Isn´t this incredible, Oliver?

The capital of Poland is Warsaw! It is the largest city in the country.
It has a lot of beautiful palaces, fountains and green parks with playgrounds.
The city's symbol is the Mermaid of Warsaw, called Melusina.
There are several stories about the mermaid.
One says that the mermaid decided to stay in Warsaw after stopping on a riverbank near the old town. Fishermen noticed her singing and fell in love with her. They rescued the mermaid after a rich merchant wanted to keep her with him and ever since then she protects the city and the people who live there.
Can you see the mermaid's fishtail, Oliver?
Another beautiful and very popular city in Poland is Krakow.
Every year children come to Krakow to see the colourful dragon festival with enormous puppets and floats remembering the legend of the Wawel dragon.
The legend says that the dragon terrified the city until a brave tailor
fed it sulphur hidden in a sheepskin, which caused the dragon
to drink and drink and drink until it burst into pieces. Has Mum ever been there? Can she tell you more about it?

I’ve already ordered 2 books, and they’re amazing :) Excellent idea and execution. One package was lost on its way to the USA, so before Christmas, they quickly printed a second copy and sent it via express.
