Samuel Marshak. "Children in a cage"; publishing house "AST"

I have in my hands a small book in solidcolorful cover. We are just planning our first trip to the zoo, and this book will be an excellent hint for the child. Before visiting the zoo and right after it helps the kid remember new animals. Small quatrains are dedicated to a wide variety of animals. Turning the pages, we move from one enclosure to another. We look to the black and white zebras, which are scattered, like school notebooks, watching the swimming of polar bears in a spacious pond with cool and fresh water. In such a hot summer it remains to them only to envy. A kangaroo will skip past us, and a brown bear will show the real performance, of course, expecting a treat in response. The second part of the book is the alphabet in verse and pictures. I can not say that I'm trying to grow up a child prodigy and teach my daughter to read before 2 years, so earlier in our library there was not a single alphabet. But in this book we were pleased to review all the letters, read merry poems. For the first acquaintance, this is more than enough. Illustrations in the book inspired good memories of my childhood. All animals are endowed with emotions, they literally live on the pages. My daughter laughed as she saw the bear gaily splashing in the water, looked at the unusual penguins with penguins with pleasure. We gladly put the book on our shelf and recommend it to her kids from 1.5 years old. But its relevance, it will retain for a long time, the child will be able to teach her letters and small rhythmic poems.

"One hundred tales for reading at home and in kindergarten", the collective of authors; publishing house "AST"

A photo: Olga Eremin If you are going on a trip or to the country house and take a lot of books with you hard, grab this one! A wonderful collection of fairy tales for kids. To be fair, I will say that inside the book there are not 100 fairy tales, this is the name of the whole series. But there are a lot of them, and they are diverse. This is the well-known "Kolobok", and "Zayushkina Hut", and "Geese-swans", and "Little Red Riding Hood". In addition, it has poems by famous children's writers and modern tales. Together with clever little animals your baby learns how important it is to follow the rules of the road, how dangerous it is to be alone among cars. And next time, perhaps it will be easier for you to transfer the child by the hand through the carriageway. And it's impossible to not empathize with a small cunning little mouse from Marshak's tale. Show the baby, as small as he himself, the mouse cleverly escaped all troubles and was able to return home to his mother. A brave Cockerel - a red comb will save the bunny from Goat-tree and from Fox and return the hut to him in two fairy tales. Illustrations in the book are also wonderful. At the same time, they are very different in style and technique, even in the palette of colors, but they are invariably beautiful and interesting for study. I was surprised when I saw that all the fairy tales were illustrated by one artist. Savchenko illustrated many Soviet cartoons, including the fairy tale "Petya and Little Red Riding Hood." I recommend this book to children of a very wide age category. It can be interesting even to the smallest readers. Although for some long tales of assiduity and attention so far may not be enough. But in the future the child will be able to use the book for independent reading.

Sergey Mikhalkov. "Poems to the kids"; publishing house "AST"

In our home library there were Sergey's poems alreadyMikhalkov. And finally a whole collection of his works appeared, to which I am very glad. To read them is really interesting even for adults, they necessarily have sense, a plot, often instructive thoughts and humor. You read a book to a child and remember how in childhood you dreamed of a sparkling summer in the sun the bicycle, and in the winter - about fast sleds with shiny runners or endlessly and often ineffectually begging for the puppy's parents. And you understand how to just make a child happy, because childhood really only happens once. The leaf page of the book, we recount the colorful kittens, along with the girl. Anyone will think about how important it is to monitor the health of the teeth and ride along the path on a two-wheeled bicycle. And still remember that in order to see the most amazing miracles, sometimes it's enough to tie your cheek to the pillow and fall asleep. It's certainly not for the smallest readers, they are long enough. These are no longer primitive quatrains, but whole stories in poetic form. Perhaps it is the age of potential readers that explain the illustrations. To tell the truth, they seemed to me gloomy and a bit primitive, I wanted more interesting drawings for such wonderful poems. Although some pictures are made as if they were drawn by a child, which, perhaps, will interest children. But overall the book is excellent, and we will be happy to read it again and again, as soon as we grow up a bit.

Barbro Lindgren. "Max and diaper"; publishing house "Samokat"

To begin with, the book is a small format. It's very easy for a kid to keep it in his hands and flip through the pages. A bright cover, where almost all the characters are already familiar to my child, I was pleased and gave hope that the book will please my daughter. Moreover, this topic is close and understandable to every mother and baby. After reading reviews that the book has long been successfully sold all over the world and even recommended by a speech therapist, we prepared for reading. Frankly, I was disappointed. Meaning personally I do not understand absolutely. What does this book teach the child? Little Max does not want to write to a diaper and gives it to a dog, but he himself pisses on the floor. For this occupation he finds his mother. That is, no useful skills can be taken out of the book by a child. The only positive thing for me is that Max himself also wiped a puddle on the floor. I can only explain the recommendation of this book for reading to kids that the theme is familiar to every child. The sentences are very simple and short, they are easy to understand and remember. Perhaps, I look from the point of view of an adult, and the children will like the book. Pictures of the daughter looked very interested. But I do not see any benefit in it for my child. Read a couple of times, and that's it.

Barbro Lindgren. "Max and the nipple"; publishing house "Samokat"

The second book from the same series disappointed me,perhaps even more. The book tells us about how the kid loves his nipple. He goes for a walk and meets in turn a dog, a cat and a duck. And everyone shows his nipple, brags. And when the smart duck takes it away, he hits the bird on the head and takes the pacifier back. After that, the duck gets angry, and Max is very glad. I honestly did not understand what this book should teach. My daughter spent a very long time looking at the picture where Max hit the duck on the head. The child did not allow to turn the page and, pointing to the duck with his finger, repeated that it hurt. Hardly reassured and carried away by another book. In my opinion, the book does not help those parents who want to wean the baby from the nipple, and on the whole carries a very peculiar meaning. I find it difficult even to answer who could recommend it.

Ekaterina Murashova. "Your incomprehensible child"; publishing house "Samokat"

A photo: Olga EreminAI is another book, but for the parents. I, like many mothers, try to read literature on child psychology. With some books, I internally agree and accept all of the theses, others push me away with a huge amount of "water" that literally splashes out of the pages, or hard-to-comply advice. But this book is special. You read it, and it's impossible to tear yourself away, really interesting. The very unusual structure of the book makes it even more fascinating. The author is a practicing child psychologist. Each chapter is devoted to a separate problem and begins with a description of history, heroes, then there is a small theoretical part. And finish the chapter with a denouement and a story about the changes that have occurred with the main characters. Sometimes it's impossible to hold back and, having poked through the theory, at least one eye to see what will become of our characters. I like that the author can recognize the incorrectness of his first impressions or conclusions, that everything does not end with a perfect happy end. Moreover, some stories are really hard and cause a storm of emotions. These are living people whose lives go on beyond each single chapter. After reading the book, certain thoughts are thought in the head about the upbringing of children, how important it is to watch their features, behavior and mood more closely, not to miss the moment when you can correct your mistakes . I would be interested in myself, being a child, to get to this kind of psychologist. But now, as a mother, I would not want to be a patient of the author: the painfully sad and confusing stories are told in her office. At the same time, the author does not give advice, she offers solutions, suggests paying attention to the resource that every person has, and can pull it out of the most difficult life situations. The book makes you think: my everything is in notes, stickers and bookmarks. In addition, I also read another author's book, which is also indicative for me.
