“Zoki Poki” became a middle-aged man and there is still no one to replace him

The English have Oliver Twist, the Americans - Tom Sawyer, we have Zoki Poki. The book of Olivera Nikolova is a classic in the Macedonian literature and a childhood reference for all children in Macedonia. It is exactly this year (2013) that it celebrates half a century since it has been published. Neither then nor today is there a child which has not read the book about the naughty Zoki, whose friend Lydia calls him Poki.
