This Is a Quiet Night, My Astronaut

This short novella is a chronicle of the first ten days of a great war, recorded by seven-year-old Iia. Her diary is a kaleidoscope of feelings: from despair to hope, from childish worries to adult realizations. Iia writes down her fears and confusion, yet at the same time finds room for joy and dreams.
Who helps a child hold on when the world around them becomes dangerous? One of Iia’s secrets is her imaginary astronaut, who is always by her side.

Perfect reading for discussing with children how important it is to support one another.
