«Konrad o el nen que va sortir d'una llauna de conserves», by Christine Nöstlinger, is the children's novel in paperback from Grup Promotor (Catalan edition).
Mrs Bartolotti receives Konrad, a seven-year-old boy, by post, and ends up looking after his education in a peculiar way, with humour and tenderness. The story combines social criticism with amusing situations and raises the acceptance of difference and the value of individuality.
Work originally published as «Konrad oder Das Kind aus der Konservenbüchse» in 1975; this Catalan edition is the 10th and came out on 3 September 2003.
Reading aimed at child and young adult readers from age 12, with themes of family and acceptance of difference.
