On the eve of the New Year holidays the issue of gifts under the Christmas tree and from St. Nicholas sharply appears to adults. Of course, the selection of a gift depends on many factors, but if you use our selection and choose the right book, then provide yourself with beautiful evenings, held in common reading. And what could be better with a baby girl and a beautiful book? So, TOP-5 book-gift offers from Zhytomyr.Travel
Steven Brusati “The Age of Dinosaurs”
In fact, they are not at all scary, those monster! At least they are described by Stephen Brusati.
For many millennia ago, dinosaurs lived in the usual life of ordinary animals: they sought food, attacked the opponents and defended themselves from enemies. The book is just beautiful, and thanks to the illustrator Daniel Chester, to make the baby look what they can not see behind the window, it’s bright and spectacular. Anyone who is interested in the life of a dinosaur, then, with pleasure, will study zoology, and maybe he will make new discoveries.
Gutnichenko Alla “Unusual Occupations”
There is also a fashion on the profession: everyone is studying for lawyers in a friendly way, then for accountants, and they have not even heard of the profession “hug of pandas” or “teether”. And although now you can already see a skilled pizza or professional cynologist, but these professions are certainly not so well-known now. Therefore the stories of the boy Andrew will interest not only children, but even parents. Moreover, the story of the profession is accompanied not only by the stories about the adventures of Andreyuk and his sister Zoya and his brother Oleg, but also a demonstration of the “tools of work” of representatives of each profession. In the format of the book-book, whether it’s the Wimmelbuch, the stories about the wonderful Andreev family come to life on the pages of the book. Of course, it is important that the future chosen by your child’s profession was dreamed and loved, and not just “fashionable”, and the Wimmelbuch here will definitely be useful.
Kosmolinska Natalia, Mahdych Iryna “The game of the museum”
I really want to slowly wash off the stereotype of boring museums. Then both kids and adults will love going to different locations where they can learn new and interesting things. And thanks to the new book “Game of the Museum” even to play the museum! Start with the cover: it has pictures that need to be solved. Then – a journey to the museum on the pages of the book. Each page contains pictures about which authors tell you. By the way, telling interesting and exciting. You will be able to find out about the first lift, jeans and many other interesting things. We hope that you will soon go to the Lviv museums with your child and the book of Natalia Kosmolinska and Irina Magdysh.
Egeland Tom “The Treasure from Michagard”
It would seem that the books written by the president of the association of writers-criminologists have to be read by adults. But this would be too predictable. Tom Egeland addresses detectives to children, and everybody will win. When Robert goes to excavations with his mother-archeologist, he obviously dreams of interesting finds. But to be so … His adventures are definitely not for the weak! The search for the mythical treasure from Mickagard, the mysterious ghost of the past, the secret of the runet board, and even the prosecution of criminals – all this on the pages of the detective. But from whom he likes more – children or adults, to solve the readers.
Kottin Menena “Black Book of Colors”
And now about an absolutely interesting book, the author of which is from far-away Venezuela. Kottin Menena is the author of more than 30 books published in Venezuela, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Peru, Guatemala, Italy, France, Portugal, but the Black Book of Colors was translated into 16 languages and received honorary prizes from publishers. The hero of the book does not see Thomas, but he can feel the smells, tastes, emotions. Together with him, we can try to comprehend all the colors with closed eyes, and this will be supported by relief illustrations by Rozana Faraya. A book for anyone who wants to learn to see the heart.
The favorite book remains with us in the memories of an adult life: funny stories or life tips, daring heroines or heroes or wise mentors and mentors bring us real or ordinary. Sometimes it really depends on the book we read in the childhood …
