Correct books that form a personality since childhood

ST. PETERSBURG. The Lermontov Library hosted the presentation of the Marshak Prize.

There are not many literary prizes for children. The praise of well-written and decently published books is the best guide for parents who want to educate their children on a reasonable, kind and eternal. Man is a product not only of education, but also of the literature he chooses. Brodsky’s thesis on this subject can be classified as immutable truths.

The Marshak Prize annually celebrates the best poetic and prose works for children. The poetry prize went to the collection “Poems with Mustard” by Vadim Levin, who has been living in Germany since 2001. His “Stupid Horse”, published in Novosibirsk through the efforts of the fearless freethinker Spartak Kalachev and falling in love with more than one generation of children, will celebrate a half-century anniversary in three years. Thousands of young schoolchildren have learned to read thanks to the repeatedly reprinted Primer according to the Elkonin-Davydov system, of which he was a co-author. In the longevity and popularity of the witty and bright "Poems with Mustard" published by "Scooter" in 2015, there is no doubt either.

The "Children’s Course of Ancient Mythology" by Sergei Ivanov was recognized as the best in the "Prose" category. Art is interesting to talk about complex things, to educate without tedium and edification own units. Ivanov - from among them. A sense of humor and the universality of knowledge help him to talk about the myths of Ancient Hellas, scientific discoveries ("Children’s Course of Various Sciences"), history ("Children’s Course of Ancient History") easily, fascinatingly, motivating the child to get to know them at a more advanced level.
