Psychologist Ekaterina Murashova explains how to support a child in understanding themselves and others. The book contains stories that help children cope with difficult situations, teach friendship and accepting differences. These therapeutic tales are for preschoolers and attentive parents: they give children the chance to broaden their understanding of the world and people, see different ways to solve problems, try looking at events through the eyes of someone with a different character, and discuss with adults potentially dangerous or anxiety-provoking moments.
For parents, the book helps determine a child’s temperament, choose appropriate parenting approaches, improve communication, and build relationships in challenging situations. The material is designed for shared activities with older preschoolers when an adult reads the text. Ekaterina Murashova — text, 2025; Yulia Yakina — illustrations, 2025; AST Publishing House, 2025.
