In elementary school, our entire class had two favorite films - "The Adventures of Electronics" and... "Guest from the Future", of course! We watched them, then discussed them and even staged episodes during breaks. I read the book avidly after...
If I had to rescue only one author's children's books from a burning house (take them to a desert island/transfer them to post-apocalypse bunkers), I would choose Astrid Lindgren! If you think that Lindgren is primarily Carlson, then be sure...
Mathematics using the Zhenya Kats system is gaining momentum. They are already studying it in kindergartens, opening clubs, and organizing math camps for schoolchildren. More and more people are getting into this system because it is non-trivial and gives good...

Ahhhh, who are fixies - a big, big secret! Everyone loves fixies, but not everyone is familiar with the original source. Did you know that little people living in electrical appliances were invented by Eduard Uspensky, only in the book...
I have long been wondering what secret the Scandinavians know that no matter what they undertake, everything turns out great. For example, children's literature - no matter what the work is, it is of the highest standard! And Nils, and...
There are books that everyone needs to read as a child. Among them are books by the famous Norwegian writer ANNE-KATRINA VESTLEY (1920–2008). In her homeland, her name is known to everyone, and her popularity in Europe can only be...
“I wanted to do something…” “Why did I come here, what did I need here?” “I forgot something and I don’t remember what.” Probably everyone is familiar with such lapses in memory. Moreover, the further you go, the more often...
How often does this happen - you receive an invitation to a birthday party and don’t know what to give. Modern children have everything, and modern parents’ eyes begin to twitch when, after the next holiday, a mountain of plastic...
Sven Nordqvist creates his works entirely himself, both illustrations and text. This is not a unique phenomenon in children's literature. Tove Jansson, Susanne Rotraut Berner, Antoine de Saint Exupery painted illustrations with which the heroes of their fairy tales are...
The prices for books in our store have two main components: the purchase price from the publisher and the cost of transportation. And the heavier the book, the more expensive the shipping cost, often more expensive than the book itself....

I really love “The Wizard of the Emerald City”, I love the whole series dearly, for me this is a real magical land from childhood. And every time I feel almost personally offended when I hear about plagiarism: Volkov allegedly...
“On the Island of Saltkrok” is not the most famous novel by Astrid Lindgren, there are no dizzying adventures or mischief in it, as in “Pippi” and “Emil”, you will not laugh at it like at Carlson, not much happens...
“Our northern summer is a caricature of southern winters,” so every fine day counts, and we want to spend it as brightly as possible. Now I’ll tell you about our exclusively summer activities with children (which, among other things, look...
We already remembered what we played in childhood, but those were word games, and now let’s go back to the courtyards of the example of thirty years (a nightmare!) ago... With sports and role-playing games, everything is clear: dodgeball, badminton,...
It happens to you, you see a book, and immediately memories come flooding back, and childhood, and grandma, and the smell of pancakes in the morning. Well, that’s how it is for me, but you, perhaps, have a dacha, and...
