Agata
Alya Demina
- Illustrator: Yuuri Saito
Every evening, at dusk, little fruit bat Agata flies out of the old temple to look for mangoes and peaches. The night forest is full of wonders: there are delicious fruits, scary birds of prey, and somewhere down below, among the bushes, grow the most beautiful things in the world.
Agata's adventures tell a kind and sincere story of friendship that can be found in the most unusual places.
Age range: 4-8 years old
About the Author
Alya Demina was born on strange shores of Amur river in the easternmost part of Russia. There, on the edge of the green taiga, she grew up captivated by the magic and mystery of the forest, wondering about the creatures who lived there. Would they be fun to play with, or would they bite?
She believes that daring and imagination lead you to magnificent places. Much like Agata, she likes exploring things on her own and can't imagine life without grapes, mangoes, and peaches.
