The front cover of "Bog Myrte" by Sid Sharp on the right: Beatrice, in a red dress, a round woman with brown short hair, is standing in the left bottom corner on a hill. She's surrounded by many green to blue hills and trees. The hill at the top looks like a hill, but is actually the green head with two eyes and hands that are holding onto the other hills, looking curiously down to Beatrice. On the left, the german back cover is seen. Text: "Die gutherzige Beatrice möchte ihrer Schwester Magnolia, die immer friert, einen Pullover stricken. Von Moor Myrte – einer Spinnenfrau, die im Wald lebt und sich für dessen Erhalt einsetzt – kriegt sie ein Zaubergarn geschenkt und macht daraus einen magischen Pulli für ihre Schwester. Aber anstatt sich über das Geschenk zu freuen, möchte sich Magnolia am Pulli bereichern und befiehlt Beatrice und den ihr helfenden Spinnen, noch viele weitere zu stricken. Was, wenn Moor Myrte das herausfindet? Sid Sharps erstes Buch »Der Wolfspelz« war für den Deutschen Jugendliteraturpreis 2024 nominiert."
