The wonderful fairy tale “Alya, Klyaksich, and the Letter “A”” invites kids to a magical country—ABC. Young readers will learn the letters of the Russian alphabet, help the girl Alya defeat the treacherous Klyaksich, and save the letter “Ya”!
A fairy tale-teaching aid. It has everything a preschooler needs: an exciting plot that isn’t simplistic, learning the letters, tasks of different kinds, and a “tongue workout”—tongue twisters.
In the fairy tale “Maybe Zero isn’t to blame?” future first-graders Alya and her friend Antoshka set out for a math textbook to return a foot soldier stolen from a word problem. If the kids don’t set the problem in order, trouble threatens the entire first grade “B”: the geese of “double numbers” will take power and graze in their notebooks. Could it be that Zero annulled the soldier? Or did the evil Minus take him away?
