About the book: 2019 / “The Adventures of Bella the Bat, who slept with her head up" is a magical fairy tale for children from a popular Russian musician and a loving father of two daughters. The story of Bella the white mouse began with a bedtime story. In the evenings, Basta told his daughters, Masha and Vasilisa, about Bella’s incredible travels and the heroes she met along the way. Bella had so many adventures, and the girls liked the fairy tale so much that one day Basta decided to publish a book that parents could read with their children. The fairy tale will help convey to children the main values: the importance of friendship, that even good people can make mistakes, that good and evil do not exist in their pure form, and that one must act honestly and responsibly. To convey this information to the child easily, and not in the form of moralizing, the author came up with the country of Bastland and bright, charismatic heroes. On the pages of the book, young readers will meet the dragon Gosha, the alien Marcus, the enchanted beetle dog Tripsy, the Golden Boy, the panda Misha, the evil wizard Gundpicus and other extraordinary characters. Inside the book are illustrations telling about the fascinating travels of Bella and her friends across fabulous planets and countries.!
