Since then, my whole family has been running around for my brother's recovery...

        The Buddies

        by Qin Wenjun

        This volume is short, the language is simple and fluent, and it tells the naughty story of "I" (Zhu Duoxing) and cousin Xiaosha in a first-person perspective. Zhu Duoxing and his cousin Xiaosha are in the same class, and they are messing around all the time. But Xiaosha has really bad luck, because his name sounds like "Xiaosha", which means "little dumb". Unlike the usual stories of little troublemakers, these stories are told from the standpoint of troublemakers. For example, watering the flowers and grass downstairs with a shower nozzel, and spray graffiti on the walls, etc. When female writer writes a boy story, you can feel how the boys are both naughty and dashing at the same time, which fully demonstrated the writer's solid writing skill. You will read the reason for every trick or trouble they make. Looking at the world of adults from the child's perspective, it is hard to tell if the child is ridiculous or the other way around. According to Qin Wenjun, many of the stories of these two little troublemakers evolved from the actions of her two younger brothers. Those are some remarkable naughty days, full of fun and innocence.

        A tale about two brothers and a sister

        by Dara Kornii

        The World was beautiful and happy then. There was no hatred, malice, or envy. The earth gave birth generously, the sun shone gently, the sky poured with a bountiful rain, and children grew in harmony with nature. The Creator admired his beloved creation. Two brothers, Morok and Zhytnyk, and the youngest sister Veselka grew up in one glorious family. They were beautiful children, generously gifted with talents. Everything changed when one of the brothers wanted to feel like God and shed the first innocent blood. And the other brother did not stop him. Evil, envy, hatred, and temptation entered the World. The Creator knew in advance how everything would end for this World and decided to destroy people. But not everything is so simple, because this is a fairy tale. Who or what saved people from death? Why is it so important to value other people's lives, love the land you walk on, and reject temptations, even if they promise you omnipotence?

        The Holiday I Had to Take

        by Kateryna Yehorushkina (Author), Sonia Avdieieva (Illustrator)

        When the holidays draw near, schoolchildren begin to think about rest and travel. Sadly, this time, Vira's (Faith) holidays will be different due to the war. She, along with her parents and younger brother, has to move to the basement floor of their apartment building to hide from the bombardments. The family members do all they can to adapt to this new reality: they melt snow when they run out of water, try to warm themselves up by singing when they run out of heating, and reassure themselves that all the people close to them are safe when they cannot hear from them. The usual way of life seems like a distant memory, surviving perhaps only in our imagination or in computer games. Yet, even in these activities, and in supporting our loved ones, we can learn how to find a light inside that no missile will ever be able to reach. The Holiday I Had to Take is not only the moving story of Vira; readers of Kateryna Yehorushkina's book will also find advice and soothing practices from psychologist Svitlana Royz to support everyone finding themselves in difficult times   From 3 to 8 years, 2138 words.

        The Wall, Etc.

        by Hamutal Bar-Yosef

        The Wall, Etc. by Hamutal Bar-Yosef is a collection of eighteen powerfully written stories, some of which are based on true stories. Israel’s celebrated writer Amos Oz called the collection "especially strong and heartbreaking." Hamutal Bar-Yosef creates in The Wall, Etc., a tragicomic, sometimes grotesque slice-of-life narrative that portrays the human condition as the yawning abyss between desires and reality. She expresses great empathy and respect for the characters she depicts, and she enters their inner worlds with a breathtaking sensitivity. Hamutal Bar-Yosef is a well-known Israeli writer, poet, translator, and scholar. She was born in a kibbutz to parents who lost their family in the Holocaust. Her only brother was killed in Israel’s 1948 War of Independence. At age twenty, the author married the playwright Yosef Bar-Yosef and had four children; one committed suicide at sixteen. She provided for her family first as a high school teacher, and then by writing guides for teachers. The author didn’t write her PhD dissertation until after turning forty, and she became a professor of Hebrew literature at Ben-Gurion University. She has published eight scholarly books and fifteen books of poetry, and she has won numerous distinguished prizes for her poetry. Her collection of stories, The Wall, Etc., (originally titled Music) won the ASI (Association of Israeli Writers) prize. Professor Bar-Yosef has translated poetry and prose fiction from English, French, and Russian. An English-language North-American edition was published in early 2019 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons, Inc., CA.  A French-Language Edition, Called Le Mur Etc. was Published BY SWS In 2020:  https://frankfurtrights.com/Books/Details/le-mur-etc-french-edition-19001778  294 Pages, 15X22.5 cm.
