Strange Spring
by Oleg Mykhaylov and Kateryna Gordienko
Description
This collection of four wonderful fairy tales helps children cope with difficult situations they sometimes face, including war, and provides answers to major questions kids may be burdened with. What should you do when you’re scared? Who can you rely on in times of trouble? At first, the heroes of the book may seem small, vulnerable and dependent. Yet their strength of spirit, soul and character is striking. Each hero is the true embodiment of human virtues!
The book aids parents in discussing fears, uncertainty and loss with their children. It also teaches kindness, mutual aid, sincerity, humanity, friendship, integrity and support — those most valuable things any human being cherishes.
