About Susanne Stemmer
ILVIE AND THEO
This is the story of Ilvie Little, a fearless little elf, who one day decided to leave the lovely land of the elves, pass through the big elf gate, and explore the outside world. Just flying around in the land of the elves being happy would have been much too boring for Ilvie! She wanted to have adventures, meet new people, do new things—and see how people lived in the world outside.
Her best friend Theo—a little monkey—was extremely skeptical. He couldn’t understand notevenalittlebit why someone would want to leave the charming, lovely land of the elves just to have a few adventures.
And one of these wonderful strawberry cupcakes was also the reason why Theo finally agreed to accompany Ilvie on her adventures. The little monkey had just gobbled down four or five strawberry cupcakes, so he stretched out even more comfortably in the meadow and began to nod off. That’s when Ilvie—for at least the one-thousand-seven-hundred-and-fiftieth time—said softly, “Come with me, Theo!” He was feeling so full and happy that he accidentally mumbled, “OK …” Suddenly, Theo had to plug his very sensitive ears, for Ilvie’s howl of pleasure was incredibly loud—louder than anything Theo had ever heard—and it could be heard right across the land of the elves.
