Another e-picturebook free to read online is Secret's Secret written by Dragana Kršenković Brković and illustrated by Suzana Pajović Živković. The book was published by the School of Fine Arts, University of Montenegro [Fakultet likovnih umjetnosti, Univerzitet Crne Gore] in 2011 and nominated for the 2011 Biennial of Illustration Bratislava (BIB) award.
One of the most prominent characteristics of Dragana Kršenković Brković's writing is her love for innovation based on mythology, legends and fairy-tales. One of her other books for children The Genie of the Manito Lake, unfortunately not yet translated in English, was selected for the 2011 White Ravens list for books that deserve wider reception due to the innovative artistic and literary style. She also won the best children's play award for The Marvelous Star (1990).
Dragana Kršenković Brković and her husband established the first children's puppet theater in Montenegro, Blue Lagoon.
