The Adventures of Otto the Spider by Manuela Vladić Maštruko
After Otto the Spider learned all of the things he met with in the first book (Otto the Spider), which was the importance of art, music, playfulness in our lives, he goes on to further adventures.
In this children’s picture book for which Manuela Vladić Maštruko wrote the text and did the illustrations, appear hand made nets, which are crocheted by her beloved aunt Đurđa Dolovčak with her own hands and needles. Those applications were glued to the illustrations and finally scanned and processed into the computer and prepared for printing. The applications of craft in composition along with the painted backgrounds stress the value of handcraft and creative work in general.
It is also important to know that these skills learned helped Otto to change himself, and then he was even able to help others.
