Transcription

Just as we all are, children are fascinated by stories.
Just as we all are, children are fascinated by stories. From the
earliest age, we love to hear about monsters and heroes, romance
and death, disaster and rescue, from every place and time.
In 2013, we created Pushkin Children’s Books to share these tales
from different languages and cultures with younger readers, and
to open the door to the wide, colourful worlds these stories offer.
From picture books and adventure stories to fairytales and classics,
and from fifty-year-old bestsellers to current huge successes
abroad, the books on the Pushkin Children’s list reflect the very
best stories from around the world, for our most discerning
readers of all: children.
THE STORY OF THE BLUE PLANET
ANDRI SNÆR MAGNASON, ILLUSTRATIONS BY ÁSLAUG JÓNSDÓTTIR
An eco-fable with heart—and humour
4
“A Seussian mix of wonder, wit and
gravitas” The New York Times
Blue Planet will delight and challenge
read­ers of every age.
Brimir and Hulda are best friends, living on
a beautiful blue planet where there are no
grown-ups, life is wild and free, and each
day is more exciting than the last. Until,
one day, a rocket ship piloted by a strangelook­ing adult named Gleesome Goodday
crashes on the beach. He promises to make
life a hundred times more fun—with flyingpowder, and coated skin so that no one
ever has to bathe again—and even nails the
sun to their sky. But Hulda and Brimir soon
discover that their endless fun has cons­e-­
quences they could never have imagined.
Could it be that Gleesome Goodday is not
everything he seems?
An extraordinary adventure of magic and
generosity, and a beautifully simple tale of
selfishness and sacrifice, The Story of the
andri snær magnason is one of
Ice­land’s most celebrated young writers.
In 2002 LoveStar was named Novel of the
Year by Icelandic booksellers and received
the DV Literary Award and a nomination
for the Icelandic Literary Prize. The Story
of the Blue Planet, now published or
performed in 22 countries, was the first
children’s book to receive the Icelandic
Literary Prize and was also the recipient
of the Janusz Korczak Honorary Award
and the West Nordic Chil­dren’s Book
Prize. Andri is the winner of the 2010
Kairos Award.

The blue planet was beautiful, but it was also a dangerous place. Each day was so full
of danger and excitement that no grown-ups could have lived there without getting
gray hair and withering away from stress and worry. That’s why no grown-up had
landed on the planet for as long as the youngest child could remember, and astronomers wouldn’t dare point their telescopes towards the blue planet.

A HOUSE WITHOUT MIRRORS
MÅRTEN SANDÉN, ILLUSTRATIONS BY MOA SCHULMAN
A moving ghost story that explores the overcoming of loss, and how to move on
mårten sandén is one of Sweden’s
bestselling children’s writers. First a song­writer, he has written more than 30 books,
ranging from picture books to YA novels,
series and standalone titles. A House
Without Mirrors is his most recent book.
Thomasine has spent months living in her
great-great-aunt’s dusty, dark house with
her father, and her aunt, uncle and cousins.
While her father’s siblings bicker about
how much the house must be worth, her
distant, elderly aunt is upstairs, dying, and
her father has disappeared inside himself,
still mourning the death of Thomasine’s
little brother.
But one day, her youngest cousin makes
a discovery: a wardrobe, filled with all the
mirrors missing from the big house. And
through the mirrors, a different world—
one in which you can find not what you
most wish for, but perhaps what you most
need…
A beautiful tale of love, grief and
growing up, A House Without Mirrors is an
unforgettable adventure into families and
the power of love.

THE GOOD LITTLE DEVIL AND OTHER TALES
PIERRE GRIPARI, ILLUSTRATIONS BY PUIG ROSADO
Absurd fairy tales, very sensibly told
There once was a good little devil—did you
read that right? Yes you did: not a wicked
little devil but a good one, and boy, was he
in a fix!
Instead of doing bad things like forget­
ting his homework and playing tricks on his
teachers, this little devil kept trying to be
good. He did all his homework—and
sometimes enjoyed it! He was never rude
and he even encouraged sinners to say
sorry. His parents were at their wits’ end.
So the little devil struck out on his own…
Elsewhere in this collection a naughty
pig swallows the North Star, a man battles
a hairy frog and a potato falls in love with a
Sultan. Throughout these thirteen tales,
clever young people find nifty ways to
overcome greedy kings, wicked witches,
unlucky spells and even silly names. And
there’s a big dash of magic to help them on
the way!

pierre gripari, the French-Greek author,
dubbed ‘a Martian in exile’, was one of the
most successful children’s authors in
twentieth-century France. The stories
in The Good Little Devil and Other Tales are
his most famous. In these tales, the giants,
witches and mermaids of traditional fairytales leap from the page, animated by a
very modern spirit. Blessed with a healthy
disrespect for authority, the author took
great pleasure in upsetting the natural
order of the fantastic.

THE ADVENTURES OF SHOLA
BERNARDO ATXAGA , ILLUSTRATIONS BY MIKEL VALVERDE
Small dog. Big dreams.
Shola is a little dog with attitude. Frus­
tratingly for her, she loves both comfort
(mainly in the form of food) and adventure
(in theory, at least), and spends much of
her time trying to decide between the two.
Whether she is faced with the possibility
that she may really be a lion or the
prospect of a boar-hunt, with eccentric
American visitors or insufferable country
bumpkins, Shola is not afraid to pursue her
dreams. .. up to a point.
Lovingly and revealingly illustrated by
Mikel Valverde, these four stories in one
volume are a treasure-trove of amusement
which cannot fail to cheer the reader.

international fame with Obabakoak (1988),
which won the National Literature Prize
1989 and has been translated into more
than twenty languages. His novels have
won critical acclaim in Spain and abroad;

translation of Seven Houses in France
was shortlisted for the 2012 Oxford
Weidenfeld Translation Prize.

“How would you define yourself? What are you?” asked the reporter.
With great dignity and elegance, Shola opened her mouth. “I’m free!...
I do whatever I feel like doing. I eat what I like when I like. I watch
television whenever I like. I say what I like. And I go out when I like.”
“That must make for a rather discombobulating life!” exclaimed the
reporter. “I like being discombobulated,” declared Shola.

THE LETTER FOR THE KING
TONKE DRAGT
‘This fabulous knightly adventure… deserves a place in anyone’s suitcase.’ De Volkskrant
The rule-book says that a young man who
is to be knighted by King Dagonaut must
pass the eve of the grand ceremony in
silent vigil. However, Young Tiuri, son of
the famous Tiuri the Valiant, breaks the
rules—he opens the door to a stranger,
who begs him to deliver a secret letter
to the Black Knight with the White Shield.
The letter is destined for the ruler of the
neighbouring realm, King Unauwen, and
concerns a matter of paramount import­
ance. Tiuri accepts this dangerous mission,
but when he arrives at the appointed place
deep in the forest, he finds the Knight
dying, murdered by the vicious Red Riders.
As he races to deliver the letter to King
Unauwen in the Knight’s stead, Tiuri is
pursued by the Red Riders, who threaten
his life—but he is determined to fulfil his
promise: the Black Knight must not have
died in vain. ..

tonke dragt was born in Jakarta in 1930
and spent most of her childhood in
Indonesia. When she was twelve, she was
interned in a camp run by the Japanese
occupiers, where she wrote her very first
book using begged and borrowed paper.
Her family moved to the Netherlands after
the war, and after studying at the Royal
Academy of Art in The Hague Dragt
became an art teacher. She published her
first book in 1961, followed a year later by
The Letter for the King, which won the
Children’s Book of the Year award and has
been translated into sixteen languages.
Dragt was awarded the State Prize for
Youth Literature in 1976 and was knighted
in 2001.

“One ought to have written a warning on it:
‘Watch out: Whoever reads this book will
forget everything that’s happening around
them!’ From the first sentence, the pages
turn into a cinema screen, and no director
could have created more beaut­iful or
gripping images” Die Zeit
pushkin children’s 2013
Hands shaking, Tiuri did as he was asked. And when he saw the Black
Knight’s calm and noble face, he felt so moved that he grasped his hand
and swore to deliver the letter safely. “And,” he said, “I shall find your
murderers and take vengeance on them!” “That is not your task...”
whispered the knight. “You have only to serve as my messenger.”
Then the knight closed his eyes. His fingers twitched in Tiuri’s hand
and fell still.
…
Tiuri stood up and took one last look at the peaceful face of the Black
Knight with the White Shield, before turning around and walking to his
horse. Now he had to carry out the mission that the knight had given
him, to deliver the letter to King Unauwen in the land to the west of the
Great Mountains…

hidden homeland years ago, in fear of all
their lives. And more than that: Oksa is
their queen.
Between her loving, powerful grand­
mother, her wicked new Physics teacher,
her mysterious uncles and Gus, her best
friend in the world, plus a whole host of
fantastical Edefian creatures, Oksa will be
thrown into a wilder adventure than she

Oksa Pollock is just a normal thirteenyear-old girl, moving with her family from

But she’s not alone—her best friend Gus
has moved with his family too. The pair are
ready to settle into their new lives, with
new friends, a new school, and new
adventures.
But bizarre things start happening
around Oksa, and she can’t shake the
strange butterflies in her stomach.
Sud­den­ly, she finds she can produce fire
from her hands, move objects with her

As Oksa experiments with her
wonder­­ful new powers, her family begin
to notice—and as the truth emerges, it

SAVE THE STORY
Unforgettable stories retold by today’s
greatest writers

Save the Story is a library of favourite stories from
around the world, retold for today’s children by
some of the best contempor­ary writers, including
Alessandro Baricco, Umberto Eco, Dave Eggers,
Yiyun Li, Ali Smith and A. B. Yehoshua. The stories
they retell span cultures (from Ancient Greece to
nineteenth-century Russia), time and genres (from
comedy and romance to mythology and the realist
novel), and they have inspired all manner of artists
for many generations.
Save the Story is a mission in book form: saving
great stories from oblivion by retelling them for a
new, younger generation.
Each book is beautifully illustrated and accom­
panied by an author’s afterword describing its
origin. The series was conceived by the acclaimed
writer Alessandro Baricco working in close collab­
oration with the Scuola Holden in Turin, founded
specifically to develop new and innovative ways of
telling stories. The Scuola Holden (Holden School)
was born in Turin in 1994. At the School one studies
“storytelling”, namely the secret of telling stories
in all possible languages: books, cinema, television,
theatre, comic strips—with extravagant results.

THE STORY OF GULLIVER
JONATHAN COE with special thanks to Jonathan Swift
ILLUSTRATIONS BY SARA ODDI
The strange adventures of Lemuel Gulliver
jonathan coe (b. 1961) is a novelist,
author of children’s books and biographer.
He was awarded a doctorate for his thesis
on Henry Fielding’s Tom Jones at Warwick
University, and during that time also
completed his first novel, The Accidental
Woman (1987). He has won prestigious
literary prizes in the UK and France, among
others for his Thatcher-era satire What a
Carve Up! and The Rotters’ Club. In 2004 he
was made Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et
des Lettres.
“For the first time in his life Gulliver
felt ashamed of himself and his fellowhumans.”
Gulliver is a travel-hungry and adven­
turous ship’s doctor, who has the odd
misfortune of being ship-wrecked four
times in as many voyages. Through
Jonathan Coe’s expert retelling of Swift’s
famous satire about our human hubris and
desires, today’s young readers are swept
along as Gulliver finds himself a giant
among tiny humans in Lilliput; a tiny
human among giants in Brobdignag; on
the flying island of Laputa, with its most
impractical intellectuals; and finally in the
land of the Houyhnhnms, talking horses
who think precious little of human
“Yahoos”.
