  2. Svetlana, I am delighted to have come across ur blog through the twitter account of kkconkers!

    I am from India and as a child I read so many Russian books translated in English as well as Hindi.
    Every year , in a smallish town of North India,there used to be book stalls filled with affordable Russian books in hard cover and paperback. I learnt about Ivan the terrible; read the Adventures of Denis a million times, even had a copy of A Live Hat book that is now posted by you on Etsy!!!

    You can't imagine how delighted and nostalgic I am to have come to your site!!!! Thanks a ton for putting these absolutely wonderful books up on the net.

  3. Pallavi, you are welcome!
    I am glad that you find my blog to be interesting.
    There were a lot of moments connected with India in my childhood. I remember the film "Zita and Gita" especially. Thank you for writing!
