Ana Is Everywhere

The name “Ana” can be seen everywhere: on the school blackboard, in the bark of a tree, even on fingers—sometimes big, sometimes barely noticeable. She is the defender of animals and a researcher of prehistoric gardens—the heroine of Julian’s stories. Love changes everything: now Julian longs for school just to meet her gaze, and he’s not at all happy about vacations, because they mean parting. He doesn’t dare confess: the moment Ana is near, “piranha-crows” take over him. But one day, during the “endless recess,” chance brings them together…

The audio version is read by actor Georgy Gelasov—people say that externally he resembles Ivan Vakulenko from the theater “Workshop of Peter Fomenko.” The recording also features Pasha Zinzynov, Varya Zinzynova, Andrey Kvasnikov, Ksusha Kvasnikova, Arina Kvasnikova, Yura Kleynerman, Dania Kulikov, Sonya Romanova, Vera Smurova, and Alisa Titova. The audiobook includes compositions by the group LosiKenguru.

Five reasons to choose “Ana Everywhere”:
1) A gentle and honest story about the joys and worries of first love.
2) The book is included in the international annual catalog of the best children’s publications “White Ravens.”
3) This isn’t just a novella—it’s an exciting and witty “study of love,” full of discoveries.
4) The text sounds like a confession—for Ana and for the feeling of love itself.
5) For those who are already in love, for those who only dream of falling in love, and for those who once loved and want to remember what it’s like.
