For my son

Let’s get to know each other

Who’s that puffing out his chest so proudly?

It’s Ravavik.

Do you know who Ravavik is?

He is the only cat in the whole wide world who became a Viking. All right, maybe not the only one because Ravavik’s dad is also a Viking.

Ravavik lives with his parents on Cat’s Island in the land called Vakakeekee.

Cat’s Island lies in the Unpacific Ocean.

In spite of its name, this ocean is usually very calm and peaceful. If you play music, its waters begin to dance. Apparently, even the ocean has a soft spot for music.

This is Ravavik’s father, Erland the Great.

He is a brave, burly Viking with a very sensitive heart. Erland the Great is interested in sports, and he can talk about them for hours. In his spare time, he plays basketball. And his other great passion is music.

This is Ravavik’s mother, Emma.

Emma is a ballerina. She has practiced dancing all her life. She also loves reading books and traveling. However, what she loves the most is spending time with her men – Erland and Ravavik.

Ravavik’s favorite dish is pizza with a double portion of olives.

He could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But it has to be real Italian pizza on a thin crust and with Italian toppings. And after a bowl of blueberries for dessert, the kitten’s tummy is superhappy.

“Yummy… pizza. I love pizza! And for dessert, I’ll have some blueberries,” said Ravavik.

Ravavik’s universe

Ravavik’s universe consists of books in which the main hero is a Viking cat who lives with his parents in the land of Vakakeekee. The kitten is very lively, and every day he has adventures as wild as his personality. The Ravavik books are not just stories about a smart kitten. They also have educational value. They teach readers about the world in a simple and accessible way which is appropriate for children. The series aims to portray the values that should accompany us from an early age: being yourself, appreciating yourself and enjoying what you have. Let’s pursue our passions and fulfill our dreams.
