It clearly fills a need in the market because it is accessible, moderately priced, and requires a relatively low degree of proficiency in reading. . . . The Meek One: A Fantastic Story is an eminently user-friendly book, which will help readers gain a greater appreciation of Russian literature, the beauty of the Russian language, and the joy of learning in general./i>--Mary Helen Kashuba, SSJ The NECTFL Review (01/01/2013)
