Ms. Lesi’s books, without exaggeration, “live” on all continents. But it is extremely valuable to us that Lesya Kichura takes care of the libraries of the Kharkiv region, which were liberated from the occupation, in memory of Volodymyr Vakulenko’s brothers in arms. The author’s “live” presentations are unique. They are always attended by children who have lost… They have lost their home, their relatives, their small homeland. Their presence is not only a manifestation of the author’s care and attention, but also an opportunity to “envelop” with words, because “Good Fairy Tales” are recommended for bibliotherapy classes!<\/p>\n![\"blown](\"https:\/\/na.sofard.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/demforum-71046e9796f9653c.webp\")
