Was sollten wir wissen, um Leo authentisch zu erzählen?

An imaginative seven-year-old who wears bright red trainers, asks endless questions, and says “Let me think” before sharing a surprisingly clever idea.

Gibt es einen echten Moment, Ort oder ein kleines Detail, das sie wiedererkennen sollen?

Leo’s favorite memory is an evening picnic beside the small lake in the city park. A sudden breeze sent the napkins skimming across the grass, and he proudly caught three while laughing so hard he dropped his sandwich.

Gibt es einen Ort oder eine Welt, die in ihre Geschichte gehört?

A cozy contemporary neighborhood near a lakeside park, with an apartment full of books and drawings, a familiar footbridge, winding garden paths, and a gentle imaginary realm inspired by Leo’s paper lantern night-light.

Wie soll sich die lesende Person am Ende fühlen?

Warm, reassuring, and quietly triumphant. Leo should finish feeling proud of his own resourcefulness and confident that being brave can mean pausing, thinking, and asking for help.

Gibt es etwas, das wir unbedingt richtig darstellen – oder weglassen sollen?

Keep everything gentle and suitable for a seven-year-old. No cruel teasing, serious injury, death, separation from family, frightening monsters, weapons, or unresolved danger. Any suspense should be mild and quickly reassuring.

Weitere Details

Leo loves making maps on scrap paper, counting ducks at the lake, and keeping interesting pebbles in his coat pocket. He is cautious in unfamiliar places but becomes talkative once he notices something curious. Please include his red trainers, a slightly crooked paper lantern, and the recurring phrase “Let me think.”
