Zgodovina

Knjiga o meji v Istri je temeljni dokument, ki pripelje do spoznanja o naravi Slovencev. O tisti naravi, ki je slovensko deželo pripeljala do stopnje odtujevanja lastne zemlje.

Pripoved o odraščanju avtorjeve mame. Skozi zgodbo se mladi bralec sreča z zanj že prav nepredstavljivo preteklostjo. Srečamo se z dobesedno zlorabo moči nad šibkejšimi. Zgodbo in življenje majhne deklice rešijo pogumni odrasli, ki pomagajo točno v trenutku, ko Micika išče pomoč. In ne jutri.

Slikanica nas popelje v čase, ko je našim krajem še vladal cesar. Pred več kot 200 leti je obiskal slovenske gozdove v bližini veličastnega gradu. Tam je zaukazal naj nikoli ne posekajo izbranega drevesa. Zakaj pa? Mislite, da drevo stoji še dandanes? Za ljubitelje medvedov, konjev in drugih živali.

Knjiga je sestavljena iz dveh pripovedi. Ena je lepa pravljična o odraščanju deklice na manjši kmetiji. Katica je imela težave z učenjem branja in pomaga ji poseben prijazen gospod. Druga pripoved je zgodba Generala Maistra. V njej izvemo več o njegovem življenju in o njegovih domoljubnih podvigih.
