The Adventures of Light Bulb Tuchkin

Annotation to the book "The Adventures of Light Bulb Tuchkin" by Lederman V.: In the collection «The Adventures of Light Bulb Tuchkin» the publishing house «KompasGid» has combined two stories about first graders — «Light Bulb Tuchkin and the Bubble... of Wishes» and «Light Bulb Tuchkin and the Stolen Holidays». Exciting stories, accurate 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 Light Bulb did not expect at all that the squiggles and writing in the first grade would be so boring! Kindergarten was so much better! «If only I could go back to that happy time and not study at all!» — Light Bulb wishes with all his heart as he enters a magical soap bubble that the Wish Fairy blows at the initiation ceremony for 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 bubble of wishes come to an end, a little man the size of a palm appears from a New Year's gift — and foretells: there will be no long-awaited holidays! Someone has kidnapped the living toy from the main Christmas tree, and now New Year is canceled. Light Bulb and his cousin Rodka could help. But how to do it if they are punished for escaping to the slide and deprived of the trip to Grandfather Frost? The guys will definitely come up with something and will again find themselves in stories that are interesting to observe — with excitement and laughter — not only for primary school readers but for the whole family. Victoria Lederman is the author of numerous bestsellers for schoolchildren, a prize laureate, her story «Calendar of May» has been adapted into a film and translated into several languages. Read more…
