The Adventures of Svetlik Tuchkin

In the collection "The Adventures of Svetlik Tuchkin", the publishing house "KompasGid" combined two stories about first-graders - "Svetlik Tuchkin and the Bubble of Desires" and "Svetlik Tuchkin and the Stolen Vacation". Fascinating stories, precise psychological details, unusual plots and light humor make Victoria Lederman's books popular among children and adults. And this collection is no exception. Just imagine: seven-year-old Svetlik never expected that the squiggles-copying in the first grade would turn out to be so boring! It was much better in kindergarten! "If only I could go back to that happy time and not do my homework at all!" - Svetlik wishes with all his heart, stepping into the magic soap bubble that the Fairy of Desires blows at the initiation of first-graders. And his dream comes true - so much so that the boy has to think many times about what he really wants. And when the adventures with the wish bubble are over, a palm-sized man appears from the New Year's gift - and predicts: there will be no long-awaited holidays! Someone stole a living toy from the main Christmas tree, and now the New Year is cancelled. Svetlik and his cousin Rodka could help. But how can they do this if they were punished for running away to the slide and deprived of a trip to Santa Claus? The guys will definitely come up with something and again get into stories that are interesting to watch - with excitement and laughter - not only for elementary school readers, but for the whole family. Victoria Lederman is the author of numerous bestsellers for schoolchildren, an award winner, her story "May Calendar" has been filmed and translated into several languages.
