This is an impressive collection of old and familiar English nursery rhymes - presented here in Russian translation by Kornei Chukovsky and other great Russian children's authors.
The words of these old favorites roll easily from the tongue, whether they be full of wisdom, humor or just plain nonsense. Many are fine poetry and serve as an important introduction to classical literature.
Color illustrations by Svetozar Ostrov are very much keeping with the spirit of the old rhymes.
In Russian language. Publisher: Machaon (Russia). Large format. Hardcover. 80 pages.
