opening of the book introduces Asmus Semper’s euphoric moment upon learning that he has been granted a position as a student teacher, allowing him to engage with the minds of young children.

Asmus's excitement is mingled with a desire to make his parents proud and a sense of responsibility, as he contemplates his forthcoming role in the education system.
