Christmas begins when our heart feels it. And in this expectation of a miracle, it is important to be near those we love and give light to those who need it.
The heroes of the book created their own advent calendar. Every day, the narrator, her husband Amvrosii, and her friend Khrystyna invent tasks for each other that not only increase joy but also reveal a lot of new things from the world of culture.
This cozy advent calendar will give you faith in a miracle that will surely come true and will become for you an intellectual travel game, in which the personalities of Ukrainian and other European cultures freely and casually combine. And rest assured, there's no shame in admitting that you don't know something while doing these pre-Christmas tasks.
