The Latvian children's publishing house 'Liels un mazs' has released Inga Gaile's second collection of poems aimed at children and young adults, titled 'Two Girls, a Mother, and a Happy God'. The book features illustrations by artist Elīna Brasliņa and is expected to resonate with both younger school-aged children and young adults alike. Through its relatable content, the collection aims to provide an engaging reading experience across different age groups.

Continuing the thematic exploration initiated in her previous collection, 'Can the Second Group Hear Me?' (2014), Gaile's latest work fosters a dialogue between children and adult experiences. The collection serves as a space for honest conversations across generations, encapsulating feelings of childhood, family dynamics, and the educational environment. It acknowledges the contemporary realities faced by today's youth, making it a relevant piece of literature for modern readers.

Gaile's poetry intricately weaves the experiences of children, adolescents, and adults, revealing family life and the school experience with both tenderness and empathy, juxtaposed against the burdens of routine and the bitterness of teenage years. Central to the collection is a longing for freedom, symbolically represented through journeys on a bright blue giraffe, navigating the complexities of relationships and emotions, ultimately leading to the existence of a 'happy god', a metaphor for hope and joy in the midst of challenges.
