"Classics Shelved" is a completely new approach to studying the school literature curriculum, tailored for today's children. The series includes readers with unabridged texts. After each work, instead of boring footnotes, there are hundreds of engaging, color-illustrated comments and notes that expand knowledge in four subjects at once: literature, Russian language, history, and geography! What are a window frame (nalichnik) and a bargeboard (prichelina)? What does it mean to have "one's breath taken away" (v zobu dykhanye sperlo)? Which is larger - a sazhen or a vershok? Reading classical literature often raises many questions not only for children, but also for their parents! In this book, we will explain in detail what unfamiliar words mean, accompanying them with interesting facts and illustrations. Thanks to the colorful notes, discovering the works of A. S. Pushkin, K. I. Chukovsky, and V. P. Kataev will become an immersive dive into history and culture, making the school curriculum truly fascinating.
