Who is the targeted audience?

The ladybug's story is for kids 6 to10 year old

with a rich vocabulary presented in rhymes.

I supported the story with colorful illustrations that

will engage child's imagination and interest.

The book also contains an educational section

related to: "Amazing facts about ladybugs", their

life cycle and anatomy. Pictures of the most

common lady beetles in Ontario and in

North America are presented with their scientific

names and a brief description of habitat and

behaviors.

Although the book is for kids, I will be glad

if the parents find it interesting as well.

What is the reason for creating the book?

My goal was to create a book similar to these,

which I remember from my childhood and I still

enjoy reading. My efforts and sleepless nights ,

during the creation of the book, will make sense

if the book inspires children to observe and

respect nature, and use the book as a source

for their first scientific assignment or research.

I hope it will increase the public interest and

knowledge of such a beautiful beetle, which

provides clean natural alternative to the

industrial agriculture pesticides production.

Hopefully people who know only the aesthetical

value of the beetle, will be pleasantly surprised

to find its place in preserving the fragile global environmental balance.

Hey Victor, I really enjoyed your book!!!!!

The Story is a very enchanting! The artwork is beautiful and engaging – the pictures really capture the mood of a magical land. I like how the pictures were nicely interspersed with the text. The pictures on page 3 remind me of children’s books I used to read when I was a kid – maybe it was the shape of the picture outline or the light tones, I’m not sure why it triggered those memories but the result is very effective. The darker toned pictures really draw the reader into the scene and the colours look very rich. The characters are great – I like how each have their own uniqueness. Good attention to detail - I really liked the ladybug page numbers and the ‘this book belongs to’ – it really helps to personalize the book. I was glad that you put the ‘science facts’ at the end so that it did not interfere with the flow of the story. The front and back covers make the book look very enticing and immediately show quality.

Really great, enjoyable work!!!!

I got it and just read it cover to cover! You are an amazing illustrator and I can’t believe you rhymed the whole thing so perfectly. And I loved the intro about finishing the book after so long. A brilliant children’s book.

Sylvie Sabourin sent me this lovely image of a lady beetle - Coccinella Calligrapha. She found it in her garden in Stittsville, Ontario on May 26th, 2011 . Sylvie is a friend and a great photographer too so I am glad she shares with us this beautiful picture. Thank you Sylvie.

Патилата на Мустакан – това е историята на малко коте, загубено в гората, което не знае нито адреса, нито телефона, нито дори името на майка си. Едиственото, което знае със сигурност е, че неговата майка е най-добра и най-красива на света. Дори с тази оскъдна информация и с помощта на своите приятели, то намира пътя за дома.

Тази приказка е в процес на подготвяне за печат. Аудио версията, която е направена с приятели за демонстрация, може да се чуе тук:

CT: Love it!!! Mного се смях с тези въшки! Как ги измисляш…

VS: Тази приказка е мехлем за душата. Има много красота, музика, отношенията между хората. Много е възпитателна за малки и големи Какво друго да кажа. Слушах я два пъти и заспах на нея. Сега ще я слушам трети път.

IG: ... изгледах и изслушах поемата-приказка и много ми допадна самата поема и начина ти на поднасяне. Находчиво и умно разказана история с красив край.

ID: Удивително Викторе! Споделил съмприказката ,която си съчинил толкова картинно, толкова истинска със символите,А майсторството на динамиката на дикцията ти надминава в пъти дипломирани"таланти"на института по театрално изкуство Браво!!!!Благодаря!!!

TM: Изслушах приказката. Забележката ми е че е много дълга и децата нямат това търпение.

MK: Чудесна радиопиеса! Добре си ги наредил думите в рими, а твоето артистично четене допълва лесното възприемане на текста. Героите са в крак с времето ни-положителни и отрицателни. За равновесие.И като всяка детска приказка-с щастлив край! Поздравления!

VD: Хареса ми приказката. Много добре озвучена и . . . интересна за малките слушатели.
