Features: The book "Stories of Childhood" tells the story of a nine-year-old boy named Adrian's childhood. Adrian lives with his grandmother Betty and his uncle Rory. He is sensitive, clever, but basically an ordinary child. His life is not remarkable in any way, but the story is set against the backdrop of an extremely shocking event: three children in his suburban neighborhood were abducted on their way to a store at the corner of the street. "Stories of Childhood" revolves around the moment when a child begins to realize how weak and small he is in a world of immense power. This world does not revolve around children, and it is difficult for them to understand.
