Fun adventures with “Aksel” and “Mia”

A fox and a mouse are the stars of a children's book published by the Burgenland Chamber of Labor. 

The story of the two cute heroes, who live in the library of the Burgenland Chamber of Labor, was written by the AK employees themselves. And the illustrations also remain firmly in Burgenland hands. Anna Weinmüller is the sister of an AK employee. She is studying art and brought Aksel and Mia to life on her tablet. "It was important to us to give a young person the stage and Anna has exceeded our expectations," say Beate Horvath and Roman Felder happily.

The 24-year-old received the texts, sketched various mice and foxes and then looked at which ones looked best.

She then breathed life into them on her tablet in 12 graphics plus a cover picture.

The first reading or read-aloud booklet in 10 cm x 10 cm format will be available free of charge from October 12 at the Eisenstadt, Oberwart and Pöttsching bases. Part 2 is already being worked on.
