Review

"The younger the child, the harder it is to write for them. You need to feel the psychology of the child very subtly and delicately. Irene Rozdobudko has done it perfectly: her «Scarecrows» is not just a funny, talented and deliciously written book, it is also very creative and really helpful for parents."
