Sometimes we dream that we are sitting on the edge of the moon and eating ice cream – oh, how do you not want to wake up then … And sometimes such crazy dreams appear that they are too scary to tell someone. This has happened to the little cute kitten: in a dream he saw a forest, a deceitful fox, a tiger showing its shiny fangs, a strong hairy lion, a wolf with sharp teeth, and many other predators. And the worst that could happen, Ikas Picherikas was lost among these predators in the forest. The farther away, the darker the forest and the scarier the kitten’s dream and … the more curious it is to turn the next page.
The publishing of the book was partially financed by the Good Will Foundation.
