Cosmos and Raspberry
When attempts to ensure absolute safety for children through sterile upbringing deprive them of the taste and joy of life, Malina and Jagoda, two brave girls, take matters into their own hands and reprogram the world for the better. “Cosmos and Raspberry” is an educational storybook that teaches children that thinking outside of the box is always worth it, and that believing in your own abilities and sense of agency can change our world.
