what our readers have to say…
“The Little Bird That Wanted to Fly to the Moon
… by Svetlana Kitik is a creative, delightful, and magical story about a little bird’s curiosity. I enjoyed reading this book because of the delicate way Kitik teaches the important lesson that you can explore things that interest you, while being aware of the dangers should you pursue your inquisitiveness without sufficient forethought. Kitik teaches this valuable lesson while encouraging young children to be excited about exploring. They can learn because of the big, bright, and beautiful world awaiting them, but must also know their limitations while they are still young. I loved the poetic style of the writing, which makes it a lighthearted and refreshing book to read.“
“Beautiful children’s book…
with both its visual content (which sparked my 6 year old daughter to want to make some collages of birds like the book’s aesthetic) and the cute little story written with a poetic skill me and my little ones enjoyed!”
