Just yesterday, everything was going smoothly for the Virazhes. They lived in a large cottage on the shore of a lake and knew no sorrow. And today, all they have is a cramped mobile home and an old car. It seems that life is falling apart: dad is out of his mind, the eldest daughter dreams of running away, mom and grandma hardly smile. Problems just keep falling on the Virazhes' heads...
But the twins, Malinka and Lomik, know: something incredible awaits their family ahead! So promised the forest ghost. Will the Virazs have enough strength and courage to accept the miracle? Will they be able to go all the way to the end? Let's go with them - we'll find out!
Five facts about the book by Alena Kashura “We are Virazi!”:
1. The story of a family in which everyone helps each other
The Viraz family leaves for a trip at a not very good time - dad lost his job, the family lost their home... But together they cope with all the problems, because they love each other and do not lose heart when a dark streak comes in life.
2. Travel in nature
Each of us sometimes wants to drop everything and go wherever our eyes lead us. Virazh travel along the seashore through picturesque small towns. Bright, sunny illustrations will add a little sun to your mood.
3. Mysticism and adventures
The book has many fairy-tale elements: cold ghosts, mystical gifts-mirarises and magical secrets of ancestors. But it is also an adventure and a bit of a detective story with real heroes and villains.
4. Circus
One of the main places where the book's action takes place is the circus. The audience surrounding the arena where the magic happens adds its own emotions to what is happening. Just like the reader and the book.
5. Finding a calling
Each of the Virages discovers a talent in themselves thanks to the Miraris. They happily continue to develop it even after the adventure is over.
