The story

Jotantrum is full of laughs, but her tantrums are legendary. Playing a yelling game with Yellkum in the woods, she gets so angry she trips into a cave that swallows her up.

She lands at Casa Batlló in Barcelona, a house with a roof like a dragon's back. A mouse named Vato warns her to stay calm, but she wants to climb the walls, and the sleeping dragon stirs.

The real place: Casa Batlló

Three things to tell your kid after the story.

  1. 1Casa Batlló in Barcelona, Spain, was redesigned by the famous architect Antoni Gaudí.
  2. 2Its curvy roof is covered in shiny tiles that look like the scales of a dragon's back.
  3. 3The house has almost no straight lines, and its balconies look a bit like masks.
