A small page for the people who do the reading-aloud — and for teachers, librarians, and the friend-who-buys-the-best-gifts.
Lesya Sonyachna — words
Lesya writes for small humans the way one writes letters to a future self: gently, and on purpose. Adventures of Mr Ratsy is her first picture-book.
Yuliana Chyzhyk — pictures
Yuliana paints in watercolour, in soft pastels and quiet light. Every spread in Mr Ratsy was made by hand, then scanned with great care.
How to get the book
The paperback is available now. New editions and translations are on the way — if you want to hear about them first, the newsletter on the home page is the place.
