I’m so excited to go on an errand.
Sausages, and pa, pa…. what was that?

A child with a cute little red shopping basket in her hand and sparkling eyes goes on an errand. She is so excited to hear that her dad is making her favorite food, fried rice with sausages. The ingredients she needs to buy are sausages and paprika. “Sausage, paprika,” she keeps repeating to herself, but she keeps getting the pronunciation of ‘paprika’ mixed up. Ring ring! She is so surprised by the bike that passes by without slowing down that she forgets the name of the ingredient she needs to buy. The child returns home and asks her father the name of the ingredient. She then heads out again with firm determination. However, she ends up forgetting what to buy because she talks to a friend she meets by chance and because of the name of the cute puppy. Will the child be able to complete the errand?

This book is even more enjoyable when reading aloud. The rhythmic “Go on an errand” contains the will of a child who wants to do a good job. As the story progresses, the expression on the child's face becomes more serious. The background that reminds you of a game map and the cute pictures that look like game characters are also eye-catching. You can't miss the fun of looking at the small elements drawn on the noisy streets and the supermarket full of various ingredients.
