The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Running away from the wicked witch, the boy Tip could not even imagine what amazing adventures awaited him and how important his story would be for the future of the Magical Land. Along with Jack Pumpkinhead and other equally strange... creatures, he is set to meet the Tin Woodman and the Scarecrow, save the Emerald City from plunder, and finally learn the secret of his birth at the end of a long journey...
The second tale about the Land of Oz, written by L. Frank Baum in response to numerous requests from readers who did not want to part with their beloved characters, is adapted in this edition using Ilya Frank's method: it contains a literal translation into Russian and necessary lexical-grammatical commentary (without simplifying the original text).
The uniqueness of the method lies in the fact that memorization of words and phrases occurs through their repetition, without cramming and the need to use a dictionary. Furthermore, the reader becomes accustomed to the logic of the English language, beginning to "feel" it.
The guide promotes effective language acquisition and can serve as a supplement to the educational program.
For a wide audience studying the English language and interested in the culture of English-speaking countries.
