About the Author

My dear readers, my name is Luba Brezhnev. I am a writer and a journalist. My book "The World I Left Behind" was published by Random House and made it into the New York best-selling authors list. It was recommended by the McLaughlin Group as one of the best twelve books of the year. My next book, published in Moscow, also became a bestseller. Now I'm writing books for children.

Why did I begin to write for children?

First of all, because I love children very much. Of course, the stores today are filled with many entertaining books for children. Some are very well written, but I wanted to write books that would teach children to live according to their conscience and stand up for those who have been treated unfairly. I wanted to write books about benevolence, morality, and the ability to love others and be a true friend.
In our days, the moral development of the younger generations is a pressing issue. I view writing for children as a serious responsibility. My books are about kindness, about compassion for the weak, about respect for oneself and for others. They teach lessons about courtesy and tolerance. I hope very much that my heroes will touch the hearts of young readers and their parents.
