The writer and poet Ida Glazer Koslowsky was born in Volhynia (Russia, today western Ukraine) in 1891. Due to her involvement in the 1905 Russian Revolution, she was forced to escape Russia, and after several years of travels, she immigrated to the USA in 1909. At the beginning of her literary career, she wrote in Russian and English and later began writing in Yiddish. She married the artist Nota Koslowsky and with him published several children's books, including the ones before us.
