    "Basil the Child Dreams" shows twenty-two images of the possible dispensation. The author would not advise to treat Basil the Child and his considerations condescendingly. On the other hand, the author would suggest the readers taking Basil the Child very seriously, and, most probably, choosing the time, finding a suitable picturesque location, and considering the possible dispensation on their own. Illustrations by Shasi Martynova. Translated by Max Nemtsov.

    Little Blue Gets Lost is a rhyming bedtime story for young children. The story will be enjoyed by young learners of all ages. 
Little Blue is now confident in his driving abilities and offers to go to the store for his mom. She asks him if he’s sure he knows the way, and Little Blue says that he does. However, he soon finds that the city can be a confusing place and gets lost, needing help to find his way to the store and to get back home. 
Young children will identify with Little Blue, as he realizes that he perhaps still needs help and isn’t quite as grown-up as he thinks. 
Parents and teachers can also use the Little Blue Gets Lost story to teach children the dangers of getting lost, being apprehensive, and asking for help when they need it while learning from their many life experiences as they grow up. 
Little Blue Gets Lost is ideal for enjoying at bedtime with younger children. However, older children will also enjoy listening to this book on their own and will be thoroughly entertained with Little Blue’s latest adventure in the big, wide world.
