A new book of poems by the most famous contemporary Russian poetess is about love. About the Great Love for children! Everyone who knows and loves the poetry of Vera Polozkova, and everyone who knows and grumbles about the poetry of Vera Polozkova—that is, practically everyone who can read Russian and distinguish poetry from prose—has asked themselves and each other: what will Vera write about when she no longer finds unhappy love interesting? This book is the answer. These are not poems about any other kind of love (like a mother's). These are simply words of love. Polozkova once again says what everyone would like to, but couldn't. We would like to compose such fairy tales and such nursery rhymes for our children; we would like to carry them on our shoulders, reciting them in verse, and bounce rhythmically. But it didn't work out that way. Now it's easy for us. All that remains is to read this book with them until they completely memorize it and then speak quotes from it throughout their lives.
