Reading in English. Russian Fairy Tales

The books in the Reading in English series are designed to help children improve their knowledge of a foreign language and expand their vocabulary. The books are intended for children who already have basic knowledge and skills. Parallel reading helps... better understand the structure of the English language, the peculiarities of sentence construction, grammar, and develop language intuition. This method allows reading texts even of quite a high level of difficulty without excessive strain. Unlike regular reading of texts in the original, the child will not have to constantly distract from the story to look up unfamiliar words in the dictionary. The plots of the fairy tales collected here are well known to children, and the texts have been specially adapted. At the end of each book, there is a dictionary of difficult words with transcription.
