This is an automatically translated description
We meet Lesya Ukrainka every day in monuments and street names, on banknotes and in school classrooms. But how did Lesya see the world every day? A living person, not an official portrait. What did she love, what did she laugh and feel sad about, what did she write letters to her family about, and who were her friends? Funny nicknames for her siblings, house-schooling, stylish outfits, aversion to public speaking and long journeys - everyone will probably find something in common with Lesia, who called herself boule vagabonde - a wandering ball.

The Portal's publications are a "first aid book" for parents and teachers.
The uniqueness of the Portal's books lies in a special system that helps adults find the right words to discuss psychological issues with children and understand the historical context more deeply. For each printed edition, a team of educators, psychologists, and historians has developed detailed backgrounder by QR codes and game bookmarks containing:
historical background — information about the historical period from expert historians;psychological support — comments from professional psychologists and recommendations for discussing important points and difficult issues
- questions to the text — a system of questions that will help you to work through the text meaningfully and deeply with your child.

The Portal's books are compiled in a series that form a holistic historical picture for children.
The idea of the series «Portraits» is to show famous figures from the world and Ukrainian «pantheon» as close, understandable people with whom one could even make friends.
The series contains interesting facts from their biographies and gives teenagers examples of how to fulfil their vocation, reach the top and at the same time remain loving and humane.
