"Hi, I'm Laika. I'm going to be the first dog in outer space! Cool, hey? It all started when some nice humans found me wandering around the streets. I was lost. They took me in, fed me, and taught me all about space. Good creatures these humans, good. Now, I'm writing this book as my diary for you. Why don't you come along and share my adventure out in space?

Based upon the true story of Laika (the dog the Soviets sent into orbit), this book recounts events from her own perspective. To ensure its educational value, it also includes a few pages of facts about outer space.

#923 in the Bilingual Legends series is in both Russian & English.

Русский

Привет, я Лайка. Я собираюсь стать первой собакой в космосе! Круто, правда? Все началось с того, что добрые люди нашли меня бродящим по улицам. Я был потерян. Они приютили меня, накормили и научили всему, что связано с космосом. Хорошие существа эти люди, хорошие. Теперь я пишу эту книгу как свой дневник для вас.

В этой книге, основанной на реальной истории Лайки (собаки, которую советская сторона отправила на орбиту), рассказывается о событиях с ее собственной точки зрения. Для повышения образовательной ценности книги в нее также включено несколько страниц фактов о космосе.

Книга № 923 из серии ""Двуязычные легенды"" издана на русском и английском языках."

I publish books in languages I don't speak so children can read books in languages they do speak. Legends have always fascinated me. Do they give your children a sense of wonder too? As an Australian poet, it's hard to find work in the Outback. But there are children all over the world struggling to learn how to read. Some of them have hardly any books in their native language. That's why I created the Bilingual Legends series - to give as many children as possible the opportunity to read a story in their own native language. Usually, each book in the series is published in the language spoken in the land where that story originates. A typical book also includes the text in English, but in some cases Spanish, Portuguese, German, or another language is used instead. I hope you enjoy reading my books!
