A fairy tale that invites young and old readers on a journey of self-discovery, imagination, and acceptance of diversity.

Little Arya finds herself in a strange world where nothing is as it seems. Through a series of symbolic trials, she discovers that the most essential answers are not found in easy certainties, but between logic and emotion, fear and courage, reality and fairy tale. A multi-layered text, written with poetic sensitivity and rich imagery, that speaks of personal growth, the power of love, cooperation, and faith in oneself.

A special place in the edition is held by the illustrations, which resulted from a creative collaboration with students from Konstantina Valera’s art workshop. After getting to know the world of the fairy tale, the children chose the scenes that moved them the most and depicted them with their own artistic perspective, turning words into images. This process not only highlighted their creativity and imagination but also the joy of collaboration, expression, and artistic exploration.

“In Between” is a book aimed at children, parents, and educators, reminding us that the most important discoveries often happen where everything seems to meet: between thought and heart.
