About the book: 2014 / They live next to us, catch our gaze, put their soft ears under our hand. Well, yes - a pair of chewed up shoes. But what are a pair of some soulless shoes compared to a warm head on your lap, with their soft paws and warm belly! What are a couple of broken cups or overturned flower pots compared to the hasty stomping and joyful barks and heaves when you are still walking up the stairs, when you are just rattling your keys, when you just enter the hallway! However, this book is not only about them, our mustachioed, tailed and feathered ones. As is always the case with Marianna Goncharova, it is also about the big world, which becomes prettier, kinder and more comfortable thanks to our smaller brothers. As for the main character of the book, a cat named Scriabin, this is Goncharova’s favorite character. An author who knows how to give animals the best human traits: loyalty, courage, honesty, charm, sense of humor, love of life.
