I bought myself a notebook today. What a beautiful notebook! With ruled lines on the inside, but the covers are mottled, so it is as if it was the skin of some unique animal. Of course, it's not real leather, it's still cardboard, but it is like leather. Dark blue spots on light blue like rain clouds in the summer sky. I imagine that it would be a proud beast that would grow such a skin. He would have horns on his head, but he wouldn't be a goat or a moose, he would be something different. In the morning, he would be seen somewhere on the edge of the forest when he comes out of the trees onto a dewy meadow. You would look - and your mouth would drop open.
Are you wondering what sound this animal would make? He would certainly make a sound when he appeared out of the woods like that. I definitely believe that. I don't know if he is an evil animal that would eat small cattle, or if he is as calm as a sheep or a rabbit. I would like to believe that he is calm, but proud. He wouldn't hurt anyone, but he wouldn't allow himself to be tampered with. And his call would be like that of a big trumpet. It would ring out across far distant lands, just like a church bell. That's right, he would make a sound like a bell ringing in the church tower! And everyone who heard it would think: Oh-oh-oh-oo! This beautiful blue animal has woken up. - Translation of the back cover synopsis (which is also the first 2 paragraphs of the book) of Sinine sarvedega loom
