Anya’s great passion is writing fun short rhyming stories. She thinks that they really help to memorize a lot of information. Anya brings inanimate objects to life in her books. She hopes that her books could become a useful tool to educate children about our Planet, Solar System, Water Cycle, and many other interesting subjects.
