The story by Rune Belsvik, modern Norwegian writer, about Prostodursene and his friends are very popular in Norway. In a small riverine country life characters full of the usual concerns: there cut wood and dig ditches, bake bread and dried shoes, look at the sky and throw pebbles into the water.
But the amazing thing: just change the angle of view - and the simplest things are filled with special meaning and touch the heart.
