The English poet and writer Joan Aiken (1924–2004) wrote fairy tales about things that were simple yet wonderful.
The cat rose on yeast, with which he, along with warm milk, was treated for a cold. The apple pie, which vaguely reminds us of the well-known teremok, took off. The Grasshopper King plopped into the oatmeal of the beautiful but impoverished girl Bridget and generously rewarded her for saving her from the porridge. The North Wind, as a token of gratitude for rescuing from the branches of a thorny tree, gave little Laura a magic necklace made of raindrops. Forced to play on the dirty construction sites where her father works, baby Daisy suddenly finds herself on the moon, walking among moon daisies and riding moon horses.
Whatever happens in the fairy tales of Joan Aiken, in the end all good people will have a happy life. And a good cat, as you know, does not happen much.
The graceful style of Joan Aiken is carefully preserved by the connoisseur of English literature and talented translator Grigory Kruzhkov.
Bright, extremely color-saturated illustrations that instantly grab the attention of children are made by artist David Khaikin.
