This is a book that explains to children how our modern world works. And it will show them why it's worth looking up from their screens and getting outside. Even with your mobile phone in your pocket. Because as Grandpa says, you can't stop progress, man!

When did the Prague metro start operating? How many people can fit into one train? How fast do the escalators move? And which Metro station is the windiest? Answers to these and many other questions can be found in a children’s book called To je metro, čéče or That’s metro, man. .

Blueprint dyeing is a very old, rare technique for cloth dyeing and printing in indigo (a natural blue dye). It is on the UNESCO World Heritage list. The message of Apolline’s Blue Workshop is a wish on the part of its creators that this fascinating traditional craft should be preserved for future generations. The enchanting, fairy-tale-like story tells of a little girl called Apolline and her grandfather’s workshop, which is filled with weird and wonderful objects, fragrances and magic. As Apolline learns the art of blueprint dyeing, the young reader learns along with her. Veronika Vlková’s delicate illustrations, in watercolours as vivid and mercurial as blueprint dyeing, are in perfect harmony with the theme of the book.
