Kateryna Shtanko. Drakony, vpered! (Dragons, Go!)
"One of the best loved Ukrainian children's graphic artists Kateryna Shtanko has almost given up drawing. What is the reason?.. The reason is actually great: recently, Kateryna Shtanko has experienced volcanic impulses... to do literary work. Instead of illustrating other people's works, she decided to come up with her own ones. And what is most incredible – she has easily composed a hugely interesting fairy tale! A Kyiv student, fascinated by biology, accidentally breeds... a dragon, who abruptly changes his routine life. This enchanting tale is to some extent a detective story, and a parody of a detective story. Here, you find both light fantasy, and children's James Bond series, and lots of instructive aspects. This is the first tale by the prominent Ukrainian illustrator. And I wish you knew how difficult it was to persuade her to illustrate her own book..."
