First came the paintings. Paintings of a "land of two blue suns and two violet moons, all shining at the same time." Out of them grew the words, one after the other, lined themselves up, and became a story. Thus was born the book 'Zhito and the Little Princess', which, in its somewhat winding way, tells the tale of that marvelous land, where "One day a terrible plague broke out"; of 'Zhito', who was a "creature, shining in many colors" and had a "deep, soft voice"; of 'Witch X'; and of 'The Little Princess'- the author- who was an infant during the Holocaust, and Zhito helped to save. This is a story of children who lose, and find, and dream, and do not cry, and search for a road of their own.
