  "The Dancing Magpie" by Marina Kretova is a fascinating read for children and adults. The book is written on behalf of a charming and naive girl, Sonia, who discovers the world around her. And we, unwittingly following her, look at the world through her eyes, sometimes with a smile, sometimes with surprise. The book reads very easily and with great interest - ten small stories, ten wonderful stories about Australian nature and way of life. This is absolutely positive literature that teaches love, kindness, and respect for people and the surrounding world. The talented text by Marina Krestova is successfully complemented by beautiful illustrations by Alexandra Kay. Its printing is impeccable - paper, font and layout are at the highest level. Such a book is pleasant to hold in your hands, it is interesting to read in a family circle and to give as a gift.

  At last! Something to satisfy children and adults alike! You cannot go past this little gem of a book for imagination and child-like wonder. Broken up into 10 little stories, the reader can walk with the protagonist, Sonya, as she learns, and finds her place in her environment - her place within the beautiful nature of Australia, and within her family and society at large. Whilst educational, the messages and stories are simple, fun and enchanting! It is written from a child’s perspective, so children can readily connect to little Sonya’s experiences. Certainly a great idea for a present to a loved one, or for anyone who values ‘good books’ in their children’s book collection! Our copy of this book is already much loved!
