Celebrating Spring

Another book from Montenegro comes from the editor of the anthology of short stories for children by Montenegrin authors. But this time it is a bilingual book of short stories by Dushan Djurishic as an author himself. The book was translated into English by Dragan M. Vugdelić, and illustrated by Abdulah Kozić. It was published in Podgorica by the Association of Literary Translators of Montenegro in 2008.

Dushan Djurishic (Dušan Đurišić) is one of the most prominent Montenegrin authors for children. He has received many awards and in 2010 he has been shortlisted for the Little Prince Award. His poems and short stories have been translated in about forty languages.

The book can be found at several libraries in Podgorica.
