Summary: Elvedin, a seven year old who lives in the children's home in Zenica, writes to his mother, who left for Germany when the war broke out.
Description: Elvedin draws on a chalk board. He sit on a bed and describes remembering his mother’s name. He explains that he is in a children’s home but that he dreams of his mother’s hair and arms embracing him. He says that he has many friends and he is starting school soon. He says that he has learnt to write and draw. He shows a drawing that he has done for his mother. It is a drawing of a house, blue sky and snow drops in the foreground.
