Asdghig Wants to Grow Up Quickly is a Western Armenian chapter book which captures that period of childhood when your problems are larger than life but might actually be solved by the tooth fairy. Asdghig's sly schemes and wacky wordplays fill the illustrated pages and the accompanying downloadable audiobook with humor.

Asdghig is in elementary school, but her friends all somehow seem older than her. Why is it that they get all the screen time, candy, and even makeup that they want, when Asdghig’s mom won’t even hear of such things? When two classmates begin to bully Asdghig, she decides to take matters into her own hands and grow up a little faster.

Աստղիկը նախակրթարան է, բայց իր ընկերուհիները իրմէ մեծ կը թուին ըլլալ։ Ինչպէ՞ս կ՚ըլլայ, որ անոնք կրնան համակարգիչով զբաղիլ, իրենց ուզածին չափ շաքար, քաղցրեղէն ուտել եւ նոյնիսկ շպար դնել, երբ Աստղիկին մայրը իրեն կ՚արգիլէ այդ բոլորը... Երբ երկու դասընկերուհիներ կը սկսին իր անմեղութեան վրայ խնդալ, Աստղիկը կ՚որոշէ իր սեփական ճակատագրին տէրը դառնալ եւ աւելի արագ մեծնալ։

This is really charming! I didn’t expect to enjoy reading a children’s book so much. The audiobook was a lot of fun to listen to and I use it as a learning tool for some of my students who want to learn how to read Armenian better. I just fell in love with Asdghig. I wish there were a sequel!
