The ten stories included in this collection introduce the unique world of one of Israel`s most acclaimed and productive children`s authors. Zarchi`s stories provoke the imagination and expand the boundaries of one`s world. Written with the sensitivity and courage of a poet as well as with a great deal of humor, they discuss feelings and situations that most children`s stories do not dare to approach. But first and foremost, they are simply a pleasure to read quietly or out loud and will appeal to adults as well as children.
Illustrated by Rutu Modan who has received international accolades for her illustrations, this is a gem of a book.
