Hey, I just read this little gem from 1920s Germany called 'Hans und Suse in der Stadt' by Trude Bruns. It's not some grand epic, but that's what makes it special. The whole story follows two country kids, Hans and his little sister Suse, on their first-ever trip to the big, bewildering city. The main 'conflict' isn't a villain or a mystery—it's the city itself. Imagine seeing electric trams, towering department stores, and crowded sidewalks for the very first time through the eyes of a child. Every street corner is an adventure and a potential panic. Will they get lost? Will the noise and speed overwhelm them? It's a beautifully simple story about wonder, family, and seeing the modern world with fresh eyes. If you like quiet, charming stories that capture a specific moment in time, you'll love this. It feels like finding a warm, forgotten postcard from another era.
