A second edition of the cult illustrated book for children and adults, written by Dubravka Ugrešić and illustrated by Ana Kovačić, is a collection of witty stories about small, invisible creatures that live in houses. The household sprites emerged from the folklore imagination, though in this book they live in an urban five-story apartment building. The expected perspective is altered: the characters of the stories are adults seen from children's view mostly as strange, confused and funny persons.
