Collection of humorous children's poems printed in a post-war camp for Ukrainian Displaced Persons (DP) in Germany. Ivan Manylo (1918-1976) was a Ukrainian poet, author of fables, publisher, and editor. He was born in Zaporozhye and studied at the Zaporizhzhya Pedagogical Institute (1937-1939) and completed literary studies at the Writers' Union in Kyiv. During WWII he was deported to Germany and later lived in a DP camp at Ingolstadt, where he participated in literary life and published his works in the local press, such as the journal Pu-Gu (Augsburg, 1947-49). In 1947 he moved to the US, working in factories in the states of Texas and California. In 1957 he graduated from the University of Pennsylvania. Manylo lived in Philadelphia, where he founded the publishing house "Svit". Scarce in the trade, like most publications by Displaced Persons (DP).
