Adventures of the Whistling Girl and the Carrot Pal at the Zoo I purchased this book for my daughter who is in the US Army. She is learning Russian for her own enjoyment. I purchased this book for her. Maryna was kind enough to write a personal note to her in Russian. Maryna is wonderful. I hope she writes more Russian children's books. Read more

"This is my favorite book!" "This is my favorite book!",our six-year-old son responded when he was asked to share his recent interesting readings. When we read the “Adventures of the Whistling Girl and the Carrot Pal at the Zoo” book written by Marina K. Gipsov to our 6 and 3-year-old kids, they always listen attentively. This educational book describes the adventure of a Whistling Girl (Свистулька) and a her little brother The Carrot Pal (Марковка) who went on a trip to the Zoo and met a cute flamingo named Lucas. The little readers will learn about an amazing ability of flamingos to change color of feathers after eating certain diet. The cover of the book is very attractive, and the book is full of colorful illustrations and includes interesting coloring activities and questions. This book is available in Russian and Ukrainian languages right now. Highly recommended! Read more

If I could give a ten stars, I would! High quality glossy pages and large text of this book are great for beginning readers. Also, the book offers hours of learning (not a short story) and fun activities! All three of my children (ages are 6, 4 and 1yo) loved this book on their own levels respectively. They learned about life of flamingoes and other fun facts among other interactive activities such as coloring and counting. The story offers an immense amount of information to keep your child interested in entertained during the read. Read more

Highly recommended read! My 3 year-old and I truly enjoyed reading "Adventures of the Whistling Girl and the Carrot Pal at the Zoo". I wasn't sure my son will stay focused for the entire time as the story is quite long for his age but he surprised me:) This book is great from many aspects: it tells an interesting and one-of-a-kind story and it's written in such a light and sincere style that you can easily imagine yourself being right there, with the Whistling Girl and the Carrot Pal. The book is generously filled by colorful illustrations that deserve a separate compliment as they are as unique as a story being told. You child will also enjoy completing fun tasks you'll find inside the book. Highly recommend for children of all ages and their moms and dads! Read more

What a great read! Fresh, funny, and a joy from start to finish. "Adventures of the Whistling Girl and the Carrot Pal at the Zoo" is a unique story about two siblings who do seemingly ordinary things but end up leading us on an enlightening jaunt through their world. And so we join them as they take a stroll through the zoo with their dialogues so genuine that you feel as though you're right there with them. Written with great affection and warmth by a mom as proud as she is amused. Maryna K. Gipsov is an exceptional writer and "Adventures of the Whistling Girl and the Carrot Pal at the Zoo" is a book that will never become obsolete. Stimulating with beautiful illustrations and activities that would delight a reader of any age. Definitely a recommended read. I'm now seeking out other books by this author. Read more
