It is difficult to find something as funny, talented and witty in our literature as this outstanding book by Vsevolod Nestaik, who is often called the Gogol of modern Ukrainian children's literature. It is not for nothing that 'Toreadors from Vasyukivka' has been translated into twenty languages and is included in Andersen's Especially Honorable List as one of the greatest works of world literature for children. This is the first edition of the new author's edition of the novel with new extremely funny episodes.
