Winner at the 2019 Independent Press Awards. A beautiful story, printed on stone paper, about the importance, care, and preservation of trees, and the small steps we can all take to care for the planet.One night, the trees in the forest decided it's time to uproot and leave. They yanked out their roots and dragged themselves off across the fields. On his way to school, Goran soon realized what is happening... All the trees had disappeared and holes could be seen where they used to be. Bewildered, he rushed home to find if the tree in his garden had vanished as well. He loved that tree, it used to be his friend during springtime when he swung from his branches, and also in summer when its leaves protected him from the hot sun. Understanding the consequences this would have for animals, humans, and the environment, he set off to counteract the damage that had already been done.

Den største historie er en fortælling, der svarer på det allerstørste spørgsmål, som et barn kan stille – og som de færreste voksne tør prøve at svare på.11-årige Ava stiller altid mange spørgsmål, men en dag finder hun på det største, hun har stillet indtil nu: Hvad er et menneske? Heldigvis kender hun en, der kan hjælpe hende med at svare. Johan Olsen hedder han. Han er videnskabsmand og bor i lejligheden ved siden af Avas, hvor han har masser af fossiler og bøger og en stjernekikkert, der peger op mod himlen. Johan ved, hvordan man kan svare på Avas spørgsmål, og de to naboer tager ud på en meget virkelig fantasirejse sammen, der både byder på Big Bang, livets oprindelse, de første dyr på land, masseuddøen, dybhavet, de første aber – og selvfølgelig kage.Johan ved, at de må rejse tilbage til altings begyndelse. Dengang, der endnu ikke fandtes tid og rum; dengang al energi i universet var samlet i et punkt, der var mindre end spidsen af din lillefinger. De må opleve, hvordan det er gået til, at der overhovedet findes NOGET. Hvordan noget af det er blevet til stjerner og planeter. Hvordan noget er blevet levende, hvordan noget af det levende er blevet til dyr, og hvordan nogle af de dyr med tiden er blevet til mennesker.Den største historie er en nyskabende, visuelt fortalt faktafortælling for børn. I hvert kapitel oplever vi et vigtigt moment i universets og livets tilblivelse – afgørende øjeblikke, hvor noget nyt tager form, og hvor alt er på spil.Samtidig med bogen udkommer Den største historie som podcastserie – den måske mest ambitiøse, der endnu er produceret til danske børn. Serien distribueres af podcastpionererne Third Ear. Den er produceret af Julie Bang for Monomono med Johan Olsen som bærende fortæller og 13årige Kamille Winsløv Wied som “Ava”.
