This is the story of Anastasia, a cockroach who dreamed of being accepted and becoming famous and important like her distant relatives the Egyptian beetles, sacred insects that everybody treated like royalty.
Although it may seem impossible to believe, in another life Anastasia was a princess, transformed by a wave of the magic wand of Fairy Brunilda, who was determined to sow good wherever she went. But being a princess is not an easy task... Soon Anastasia began to feel out of place. She didn't like living in the palace too much, and after following exciting adventures, Anastasia came to understand that being an ordinary, everyday cockroach wasn't such a bad thing after all. Especially when, moved by her great heart, she managed to save the lives of an entire family of humans, everything without getting a hair out of place! What prize did Fairy Brunilda have in store for her as a reward for her generous actions?
A free-spirited tale about elves that will inspire to appreciate and collect the joys of life.
