About This Book In everyday life, Shapochka (=Little Cap) is not allowed to do many things - for example, eat sweets, run, practice skateboarding and even stroke the dogs. He also has to take tablets in time, because Shap (=Cap) (he is called so, as he doesn‘t want to take off his blue knit cap since his hair fell out after chemotherapy) is still fighting against leukemia. But the boy is not desperate and plays with his new friend - a blue-gray whale, which appeares over the town just from the air. The whale even carries Shap above the clouds on its back.
The Ukrainian book „Little Cap and the Whale" by Kateryna Babkina is dedicated to children, who fight against oncological diseases.
From each sold book, 5 Ukrainian hryvnyas are being donated for the International charitable foundation „Tabletochky" in order to help children with leukemia.
