Blieka’s ball was a special present and Blieka loves it, taking it everywhere and refusing to share. But one day something happens to the ball and Blieka needs help from friends to fix it. After this Blieka tries hard to share the ball but it is not easy. The exuberant ending shows the benefits of sharing as all Blieka’s friends bring their toys, and the young animals play together sharing happily. Soft, colourful illustrations perfectly complement Blieka’s comical attempts to overcome a natural reluctance to share.

All young children find sharing extremely difficult. The story of Blieka and Blieka's beloved ball will help a small child to acknowledge their own feelings of possessiveness and see the benefits of sharing.
