Thanks to the author's excellent ability to create humorous stories, a series of funny tales sometimes makes readers laugh uncontrollably. Although Vsevolod Nestayko's book "The Bullfighters of Vasyukivka" was created with a view to children and youth audience, any adult will be delighted and charged with a great mood after reading the content of the adventure stories.
Book 3. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
The first part of Harry Potter's adventures is book #1 for young readers. It was she who stirred up a wave of love for reading that took over the whole world! No other fiction book had such a success until J.K. Rowling's first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, appeared on the shelves of English stores in 1997.
An orphan named Harry lives under the stairs in the house of his uncle and aunt Dursley. He doesn't yet know how to get to the nine and three-quarter platform, use a wand, or fly a broomstick. But one day an owl will come to him with a mysterious letter inviting him to study at the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and from that day on, his life will change radically...
As soon as he enters the magical world, a nondescript, shy boy becomes the centre of attention, because he turns out to be the Boy Who Lived.
Now the young wizard is about to embark on an exciting adventure at Hogwarts, making new friends and facing mortal danger from his family's oldest enemy. Will he be able to fight the evil spell?
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was translated into Ukrainian by A-BA-BA-GA-LA-MA-GA Publishing House. The
translation was done by the poet and publicist Viktor Morozov, who is considered to be the best translator of J.K. Rowling.
Book 4. Matilda
«Matilda» — is the most popular book by Roald Dahl, one of the literary fathers of J.K. Rowling, author of Harry Potter...
Matilda is a brilliant child, but her relatives do not think so. For them, she is an extra hassle, a headache. And Matilda decides to re-educate her narrow-minded and self-absorbed relatives, and at the same time the terrible headmistress, Mrs Trunchbull...
In 1988, «Matilda» was recognised as the best book for children.
Book 5. The Youthful Years
At one of the car parks in the city of Biloshchitfield, a exhausted teenager who has also lost his memory is found. In fact, he remembers everything perfectly well, and has lost only his terrifying appearance and strength, as well as almost all his magical abilities, and is forced to reincarnate as an ordinary teenager. Because he is not Tommy Lloyd, but a true Dark Lord, unable to hide the sideways smile that makes adults feel cold.
The story of the Dark Lord was written by British writer and author of numerous computer games Jamie Thomson. He once received the Roald Dahl Award, so you can be sure that the book about Tommy Lloyd/Dark Lord will not only scare you, but also make you laugh.
Book 6. My Brother the Mummy and the Golden Scarab. Book 1
Just try to imagine: you are an ordinary boy from the most boring Dutch village in the world. One evening you come into your room, smell a stench, look around and see a mummy lying in your bed. What would you do? Of course, at first you would be seriously scared. Then you would close your eyes, count to ten and hope that when you open them, the creepy monster will disappear. However, imagine that ten seconds later, the mummy is still in your bed... and ten minutes later, too!
This is the first book in the popular My Brother the Mummy series, written by the famous Dutch children's writer Tosca Menten a few years ago. The book is the basis for a film of the same name and a children's musical. The
book has been translated into many countries around the world. To date, 10 books have been published in the Netherlands about the adventures of an Egyptian mummy boy named Dummi and his friend Hoos.
Book 7. The Twelve Misadventures of Ostap Kvitochka
It's no secret that books by the famous Ukrainian writer Sashko Dermansky, written ostensibly for children, are read with great pleasure by older readers, including grandparents. This time, the author has done something different: «The Hundred and Twelve Misadventures of Ostap Kvitochka» — a book written ostensibly for an older readership, but there is no doubt that the strange and funny adventures of the young teacher Ostap and the equally strange and funny adventures of the foolish Velzeper will appeal to both older and younger students.
