Animal fables may seem obvious: these, however, are anything but. In Tales for Ida Mikołaj Łoziński, an award-winning young author, displays both high sensibility and a thorough understanding of and affinity with a child’s imagination. The book transcends traditional narrative, combining adventure and parable. The tales are, above all, stories about friendship, love and the search for one’s own destiny. Łoziński’s animals are true to character – a fly relishes the leftovers on the table, a dog barks at everyone and everything – but also immensely sensitive, and their stories will entertain and move adults as well as children. Beautifully illustrated by Ewa Stiasny, they are portraits of fantastic worlds extending just beyond the mundane everyday experience.
