  • 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 Childrens 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 Childrens list reflect the very best stories from around the world, for our most discerning

    readers of all: children.

    The fate of a kingdom depends on just one person

    When sixteen-year-old Tiuri answers a desperate call for help, he finds himself on a perilous mission that could cost him his life. He must deliver a secret letter to the King who lives across the Great Mountains a letter upon which the future of the entire realm depends. It means abandoning his home, breaking all the rules and leaving everything behind even the knighthood that he has dreamed of for so long. He must trust no one. He must keep his true identity secret. Above all, he must never reveal what is in the letter.

    tonke dragt was (b. Indonesia, 1930). When she was 12, she was imprisoned in a Japanese camp during the war, where she wrote her first book using begged and borrowed paper. After the war, her family moved to the Netherlands, where she became an art teacher. In 1962 she pub-lished her most famous story, The Letter for the King, which won the Childrens Book of the Year Award and has been translated into 16 languages. Its sequel, The Secrets of the Wild Wood, will be published by Pushkin Childrens Books in 2015. Dragt was awarded the State Prize for Youth Literature in 1976 and knighted in 2001.

    If I open this door, he thought, Ill have broken the

    rules. And then the king will not knight me tomorrow.

    Tiuri turned the key, opened the door a crack and

    peered out into the night. A man stood outside the door,

    dressed in a monks habit, with the hood pulled down

    over his eyes. Tiuri could not see his face, as it was too

    dark. He opened the door a little wider and waited in

    silence for the man to speak. Thank you! whispered

    the stranger. Tiuri did not reply. The stranger waited

    for a moment and then said, still in a whisper, I need

    your help. Its a matter of life and death! Will you

    help me? Please.

    In this witty tale of insistent parents and talking animals, a child questions his purpose. In the country, theres nothing to do, except: admire. Its the same as being bored, but with your eyes wide open. The hilarious story of grumpy city-child Leonard, forced to go for country walks with his greenery-loving mum and dad, is a wonderful reminder of what use we may be to the world. What do we know? What can we do? And is any of it of real value?The Pointless Leopard is a charming tale for all, about the parts we play in the lives of others.

Antoine flew over mountains and deserts, battled winds and storms, and even tried to break aviation records. He also crashed a number of times. From his plane he reflected on life on the earth and in the skies, and this inspired him to write about his experiences.
