Rain: A Little Tale

The little tale Rain is an astonishing book for family reading, perfectly suitable for both children and adults, as it hides many meanings. Children are awaited by a magical world of fairy tales, a celebration of goodness and love, while adult readers will perceive this fairy tale as a parable. The magnificent illustrations by modern artist Diana Lapshina complement and adorn this fairy tale. Each drawing remarkably captures the mood of the story: poignant sadness, anticipation, and exultant joy. The book became a laureate of the VII open competition of publications Enlightenment through the book and received a nomination as the best children's book at the church-public exhibition of the Orthodox Russia forum at the Central Exhibition Hall Manege on November 5, 2012.
