"Present an Easter Egg to Me" album represents the exhibition of children paintings that took place in Ivano-Frankivsk.

Its goal is to show the art of children who now consider themselves little citizens of a great country.

The book's author Marharyta Boyko says in her introduction, "Dear friend! You are holding an unusual book. Open it and look at the ornamental patterns of pysanky! They are a small part of our souls, our traditions, riches, love, beauty and health left to us by our parents, grandparents and ancestors. Their patterns, warm colors remind of wedding towels, and fronts of the national shirts in their combination of yellow, green and red shades - all sparkles, laughs, sounds!"
