The Wizard of Oz

/ Author / Scrie un comentariu

There are a lot of classical stories that will always remain in children’s hearts. But the one imagined by L. Frank Baum will be hard to top.

The Wizard of Oz had been made in various adaptations, illustrated picture books or plays and films. The adventures of Dorothy and her companions is known and loved all over the world.

We have quite a collection of Wizards in our daughter’s library, the last addition being the Romanian version published by Humanitas Junior in 2026 and illustrated by the great artist Iacob Desideriu.

Enjoy!

Biografii pentru copii

Clasa a 4 a a venit cu o noua materie, istoria. Si daca pasiunea copilului pentru istorie si vremuri de mult apuse nu ar fi fost de ajuns ca subiect de lecturi, acum s-au adaugat si lecturile ce au ca subiect mari evenimente si conducatori romani.

Colectia noastra de carti biografice este deja formata, incercam sa adaugam noi titluri pe masura ce aflam despre ele.

The winners of this year ( well, in fact the last year, 2025) awards were a joy and a surprise all at once. Creating good art for children is becoming more and more challenging and both sides, creator and reader, have their one journey to take.

We were lucky enough to be able to read some of the medalist and here they are.

Enjoy!
