Se le divinità pagane popolano ancora il nostro mondo... Dieci storie quasi di paura che potrebbero essere accadute a casa vostra, nel vostro cortile o a scuola. A ispirare questo libro sono stati i racconti che il padre narrava all'autrice quando era piccola, e alcuni incontri inaspettati con creature misteriose della mitologia lituana. Se, mentre leggete, avete la sensazione che qualcuno si nasconda nel vostro armadio o sul balcone, se sui rami spuntano delle unghiette al posto dei germogli e un'ape esce improvvisamente dalla bocca di un vostro amico, mantenete la calma.
