A collection of short stories and poems, intended for younger schoolchildren, it was also the winner of the "Grigor Vitez" award for 1969. It has seen numerous editions, partly because its title story was included in the reading list.
The work brings together a gallery of colorful characters – family members, village neighbors, teachers, friends – who shape Ćopić's childish view of the world.
The novel emphasizes how even good can have bad consequences when taken out of proportion, and that responsibility, morality, and honesty are more important than wealth itself.
The work is a combination of documentary records, personal reflections, and literary episodes, bringing the reader both historical information and an intimate picture of the war days.
After the recently published first novel "The Sugar Lord", N. Mihaljević will once again delight children with the interesting crime-adventure novel "Heroes of the Dusty Tower".
