Jonathan Livingston Seagull = A Seagull Named Jonathan Livingston

The book is organized on the principle of bilingualism: the works are published in the original language with a parallel translation into Russian. The parable "A Seagull Named Jonathan Livingston" is a story about a seagull who more than anything in the world wants to comprehend the mystery of flight. By his behavior, Jonathan challenges the established laws of the Flock, and his peers banish him. But he does not betray his goal, constantly perfecting his skill and ultimately triumphing over both the primitive worldview of his kin and over speed, space, and even time. Learning a foreign language through parallel reading helps not only to expand vocabulary but also to work effectively on mastering grammatical structures and speech turns.
