Jefimija – The first Serbian female writer

A children's book about faith, education and the power of the written word

This illustrated book tells the life story of Jefimija, one of the most important women of medieval Serbia. A lady-in-waiting, nun, and poet, she is considered the first Serbian female writer. Her works—prayers and poems in which she expressed her faith, grief, and hope—remain living testimonies to Orthodox spirituality and Serbian culture to this day.

The book is part of the award-winning series "Deca čitaju srpsku istoriju" (Children Read Serbian History), which introduces young readers to the great figures of Serbia's past. With child-friendly text by Slobodan Stanišić and striking illustrations by Ivan Šainović, children learn about the spiritual depth, literary creation, and the role of women in Serbian history.
