My name is Elina. My friends call me Eli. I love going going to the parties, pizzas, and cellphones. But of course, I don’t have my own cellphone so I have to beg my mom to give me hers. I want to tell you two secrets: I hate homework and Fresh-herb Kuku.

Isn’t Elina all of us? She is an absolute powerhouse, who seeks adventure and fun and runs away from discipline and homework. Elina has the most imaginative mind around her and with her little brother, Mani, and a few good friends, she wants to make the world a better place. But first things first, she needs to ditch her mom and their nosy neighbour, who is an old lady.

Mojgan Kalhor has created a lovely character, who is a sweet girl. All the young readers would love to read her stories and her honest, yet problematic accounts of the mischievous things she does. Moreover, the books are filled with interesting facts about nature, which are presented in the most interesting of ways.

Along with Kalhor’s fascinating narrative, we must proudly mention the books’ illustrations. Sarah Tabibzadeh, an internationally acclaimed illustrator, has made Elina alive with her fun and simple drawings. The readers’ minds will explore Elina’s world through fun illustrations.

This brand new series is perfect for children who love fun stories, and are beginner readers themselves. Short sentences, simple wording, and hilarious stories are what they really want!
