“Pappa!” roep Johannes. “Pappa, kyk net!”. “Stil!” roep meneer
Blom. “Ek kry nie gewerk nie!”. “Maar jy moet kyk, Pappa,” se Nella
Della. Sy hou haar hand ’n bietjie stywer om die mannetjie sodat hy
nie kan ontsnap nie. Meneer Blom kyk. “Wat is dit?” vra hy effens
knorrig, asof hy vies is dat hulle hom oor so ’n kleinigheid pla.
“Is dit ’n kabouter? Kabouters bestaan nie. Dit is dus onmoontlik.
Los my nou dat ek kan werk.” ’n Kabouter is dit nie, maar ’n
wiplala met die naam Wiplala. En Wiplala kan toor, of soos hy dit
noem ‘tinkel’. Die enigste probleem is dat Wiplala dit soms regkry
om te tinkel en soms nie. Wanneer hy die Blom-gesin net so klein
maak soos hy, is dit die begin van ’n opwindende avontuur. Die
Bloms wonder egter of hulle ooit weer normale mense sal word!.
Wiplala verskyn oorspronklik in 1957 in Nederlands. Dit is uit die
pen van die bekende Nederlandse kinderboekskrywer Annie M.G.
Schmidt. Die boek word in verskeie tale vertaal (onder meer Duits,
Fins, Engels en selfs Japannees). In 2014 verskyn daar ook ’n film
wat gebaseer is op die boek.
