Fit with Jacob


We don’t usually review books, but today is an exception : we are obliged, because Claire loves Kater Jacob.
Fit mit Jacob
Jacob is 40 years old, but he doesn’t look like this. His secret ? Seven miracle exercises he practises daily, as for example :

These exercises are widely inspired by the Five Tibetans, a compilation of five yoga exercises which would have beneficial effects for the whole body.

Hans Peter Brugger, author, practises these seven exercises, and the idea to make a small book came to him when his daughter Lea, still a kid, began to practise them with him.

Sven Hartmann, illustrator and painter, is since 40 years Kater Jacob’s daddy.

Every exercise appears on a double spread : on the left, the description (and Jacob’s little comment !), and on the right the steps in pictures. Even if you don’t speak German, you will understand easily. Furthermore, the illustrations are adorable.
der Schraubi
Sven, Hanspi and Jacob called on to doctors and physiotherapists to estimate the presented exercises. Their opinion : valid and to be recommended !

You will find the book “Fit mit Jacob” (in German) in all good booksellers and on www.woerterseh.ch.

This book was given us free of charge and we did not receive other compensation. The expressed opinions are only ours.

Meeting with a monster


ZORRO : during my last expedition in the jungle, I came face to face with a terrifying creature : an anaconda !

Relying only on my courage, I faced him. After a relentless fight, I emerged victorious out of this meeting, and I proudly brought back my trophy to Momo. This latter was so happy that he shouted loudly for joy.

PIXIE : here is the true story : during one of his trip in the garden, Zorro met a small 30-35 cm grass-snake. He captured him and brought him half dead to Momo. You need to know that Momo hates snakes, and in my opinion, the shouts he made were everything but shouts of joy !

Momo bravely armed himself with a fly swatter and knocked out the snake (who had already died). He then threw it out the window, always by means of the fly swatter. The poor reptile landed on the path.

Shortly after, when Claire arrived, Momo waited for her to indicate her that a “monster” was lying on the path. Claire horrified him by taking the snake in the hand to put him in the grass.

Poor Momo, what emotions !
