Description

Hoverla is the tallest mountain in Ukraine. Many people climb it every year. But what do we know about it? Where does its name come from? Where does the Prut waterfall flow? Why is it so important not to trample down the moutain slopes? The story is told by the mountain itself, and many interesting facts and beautiful illustrations will introduce the readers to the diverse world of Hoverla and its inhabitants. Hoverla shows that everything has its unique voice, even the stones if you know how to listen.
