Karađorđe – The leader the world admired

A children's book about courage, rebellion and the beginning of a dynasty

This book tells the exciting story of Đorđe Petrović—better known as Karađorđe or "Black Đorđe"—the legendary leader of the First Serbian Uprising and progenitor of the Karađorđević dynasty, in a child-friendly and engaging way. His strength, courage, and unwavering determination made him a target of the Ottoman rulers—and at the same time a celebrated hero of his people.

The book is part of the third volume of the award-winning series “Deca čitaju srpsku istoriju” (Children Read Serbian History) and was awarded the “Stuplje” Prize for the preservation of Serbian tradition and Orthodox spirituality.

Jovan Ukropina's captivating illustrations and Slobodan Stanišić's clear, child-friendly text make this book a lasting treasure for young readers who want to understand and celebrate their roots.
