These are the 9 silhouettes that belong to the Sibylle von Olfers book: The Story of the Root Children (book not included). From the scene of Mother Earth waking the sleepy Root Children and encouraging them to start making their new spring clothes, to the famous picture where the Root Children walk towards the light and venture above the ground. Including the pictures of the four seasons, beautifully drawn by Sibylle von Olfers.
All 9 StoryLux Silhouettes are illuminated magically by our Toverlux Lamp (sold separately). Let your child easily change the silhouettes whilst you enjoy reading the book together.
Toverlux is honored to illuminate your home with the enchanting tale of "The Root Children." Authored by Sibylle von Olfers, this timeless classic was created as a labor of love for her younger sister, enriching her family's life with its magical narrative and now, generations of families around the world.
Inspired by her imaginative upbringing and deep connection to nature, Sibylle von Olfers—a nun, art teacher, and visionary storyteller—crafted this beloved tale in 1906. It invites us into an enchanted world where the root children wake from their winter sleep to experience the beauty of the seasons, symbolizing the cycles of nature and the innocence of youth.
As the soft glow of StoryLux casts its spell, let us honor the legacy of Sibylle von Olfers and the whimsical world she created. Join us in making each night an adventure into the heart of childhood magic, celebrating the enduring charm of “The Root Children” and their journey through the seasons.
