LEDA MILEVA 'S poems and tales in verse for children have gained her a central place of honour in Bulgarian literature.
Generations of Bulgarian children have grown up reading them and enjoying them. Every Bulgarian child knows and sings her Wee White Bunny, and to every parent
it brings memories of happy and carefree childhood.
I translated the poems included in the present collection 35 years ago when my daughter and son were still children. The moment I did each poem I read it to them and their reaction encouraged me to go on with my work. I know they really enjoyed them, and I hope that many other children will enjoy them, too.
