Stories about childhood imagination and everyday miracles.
Zulya Stadnik is not just a talented author, but also an educator who has worked with children for many years. She knows the fears, hopes, and dreams of little ones perfectly well and does everything possible to preserve a spark of healthy curiosity, openness to the world, and the ability to dream in their souls.
In this new book, Zulya introduces us to little Solka, whose prototype is the writer's daughter, also named Solka (or Assol, in full). Solka loves to go for walks, daydream, notice interesting details in the world around her, and draw amusing parallels. Through her eyes, an ordinary ball becomes magical and starts granting wishes, a juicy tangerine lights up inside a street lamp instead of a bulb, a long fence stretching along a snowy path turns into a centipede, and a snow hill in the park becomes the back of an elephant.
