"Fact is the first Bulgarian children's book translated into English and published in Great Britain in three decades.

This is the first part of the fantasy series Tales from Upland: Mina, Magic, and the White Beaker by the children's author Vesela Flamburari. The author was born in Dobrich, Bulgaria, she is a puppet actress by profession, and a storyteller for children by vocation. Vesela writes her children's books in our southern neighbor (Greece) and although she is a member of the Union of Bulgarian Writers, she regularly attends events of the Greek writers' unions together with her husband, who writes poetry.

"Mina, Magic and the White Beaker" is full of magic, adventures and magical creatures created according to images from the ancient Bulgarian and Slavic mythologies," Vesela Flamburari said in "Before All".

Fans often compare her Mina to Harry Potter. Initially, the English version of the book was distributed in electronic form. The printed version of the novel is already ready.
