In the spirit of our non-profit mission, Seven Seas Press is launching a fundraiser to send copies of our latest book — Три Соняшники ~The Three Sunflowers (a bilingual Ukrainian-English edition)—to children affected by the war in Ukraine.

I believe The Three Sunflowers will offer the light of hope during these difficult times we are enduring together, and will be a source of strength and support not only for children, but also for adults.
