”The story is about a grandfather and his three grandchildren. They have to choose between good and evil where good represents the god Svarozic who is the son of the god Svarog. The evil represents the master of anger. His name was Bjesomar. The purpose of these stories is to find the meaning of what one’s heart desires.”

I love Ivana Brlić Mažuranić's fairy-tales.
Cvijeta's works don't match the mental images I had while reading them, but Ivana's works are wonderful.

Her book was one of my favourites when I was a child.
