Title:Salvador Dali
Every day, little Orozbek must trek large distances and traverse a river in order to reach school because it is where he can come closer to his ambition. Orozbek's favorite part of school is sketching class, which he never misses. And occasionally, the sole handcrafted bridge goes underwater, making it difficult to traverse. But can any difficulty stop this passionate young boy from not just dreaming about his passion but also achieving it?
