The cheerful and optimistic story “A FISH THAT COULDN’T CRY“ is intended for children aged 5-8 years, and in a subtle and metaphorical way speaks of the silverfish Alma who has lived for years in an aquarium where she is provided with regular meals and where she is protected from any danger, but at the same time she is deprived of all life's excitements, joys and adventures. Uniformity and the monotony of life under a kind of glass bell leads to the fact that Alma is not able to express emotions, specifically - she cannot cry. Imagining about the world outside the aquarium, about the vast seas and oceans, Alma decides to escape to this wonderful world. On her way, she experiences life in all its fullness, she experiences happiness, sadness and pain and manages to release emotions, and most importantly, she is finally able to cry because she realizes that the world is truly worth tears.
