Miss Leoparda
A leopard drives the bus, and the town discovers what it had been relying on only once the route quietly stops running altogether.
A picture book about a leopard who drives a bus, and what happens to a small community when the routine everyone quietly relies on is withdrawn. Shaloshvili draws in soft, slightly wistful colour, and the story lands somewhere between civic parable and bedtime comfort without committing fully to either.

These dynamics come alive with uncommon sweetness and charm in Miss Leoparda (public library) by Natalia Shaloshvili, translated into English by Lena Traer.
