"Classics Sorted Out" is a brand-new approach to studying the school literature curriculum, tailored to modern children. The series includes readers with unabridged texts. Instead of boring footnotes, every work is followed by hundreds of engaging, colorful illustrated commentaries and notes that broaden knowledge across four subjects simultaneously: literature, Russian language, history, and geography! What is a "black hut" (smoke hut) and how does it differ from an ordinary one? Who was called a "grandmother-backyarder"? What is a wood splinter and why did every household have one?
Reading classical literature raises many questions, not just for children, but for their parents too!
In this book, we will sort the classics out, explain in detail what unfamiliar words mean, and accompany them with interesting facts and illustrations.
Thanks to these colorful notes, getting to know Russian folk tales, as well as the works of A. S. Pushkin, V. M. Garshin, R. Kipling, and many other writers, will become an immersive journey into history and culture, making the school curriculum truly exciting.
