Do you want to know what life has in store? It's all here in this
book. All the little things we learn in the course of our lives. A
page a year, from nought to a hundred. 5: You learn that boys and
girls fall in love. Incredible! 13: When will your parents learn?
Not in front of your friends. 36: A dream came true, but it feels
different than you thought. 45: Do you like yourself as you are?
75: You learn to unlearn things. Can you still do a somersault? 86:
Everything can be different in every moment. How does our
perception of the world change in the course of a lifetime? When
Heike Faller's niece was born she began to wonder what we learn in
life, and how we can talk about what we have learnt with those we
love. And so she began to ask everyone she met, what did you learn
in life? Out of the answers of children's writers and refugees,
teenagers and artists, mothers and friends, came 99 lessons: that
those who have had a difficult time appreciate the good moments
more. That those who have had it easy find it harder getting old.
That a lot of getting old is about accepting boundaries. And of
course, as one 94 year old said to her, 'sometimes I feel like that
little girl I once was, and I wonder if I have learned anything at
all.' A bestseller in Germany, HUNDRED is a book given by children
to grandparents and the other way around, for christenings and
Mother's days, significant birthdays and times of celebration. With
every age beautifully illustrated by Valerio Vidali, Hundred cannot
simply be read because, like life itself, it must be experienced.
