In this post, we will see the book The Green Island by Victor Datskevich.
About the book
In the book, a father and son (Vadik) explore botanical gardens of Moscow. The book is a nice introduction to nature watch for children which answers many inquisitive questions they may have. The book is full of colour photographs of flora and fauna that they discover.
The book was translated from the Russian to English by Jan Butler, the photographs in the book are by the author and was published by Progress in 1980. Drawings are by V. levin sohn(or son) Telugu translation is by R. V. R (thanks to @var for translation, see the comment below). We also have a link for the Telugu version of the book published by Raduga/Visalandhra Publishers, who republished many of the titles in Telugu.
Do let us know if there are any other translations of this book.
In this post, we will see the book How Baby Elephant Learnt to Danceby Yuri Yarmish.
About the book
This is a children’s book that tells the tale of a baby elephant who wants to dance after listening to nice music from a ballet school. He tries to copy other animals but is not successful. Afterwards, he is taken to a circus and gets his own show and is loved and appreciated by everyone!
The gorgeous illustrations are by Irina Mishyna. The book was translated from the Ukranian by Lilia Titar and was published by Dnipro Publishers in 1976.
In this post, we will see the book Geology in Pictures by Anatoli Chlenov.
About the book
This book tells children about geology which literally means the study of the Earth, about people who search for minerals, and many other things.
The book follows question and answer format about various aspects of geology: its scope, contents, methods and its mysteries. Questions are answered in a way that will make the readers want to know more. There are lavish two-page colour illustrations for every section.
But I am in love with crayon monochrome drawings (which are also part of the colour spreads):
I wish I was able to draw something like this!
The book is a part of Discovery series of books meant for young children.
We might see other books in this series in the future.
The book was translated from the Russian by Graham Whittaker and gorgeous illustrations are by Andrei Platonov. The book was published in 1990 by Raduga, perhaps one of the last ones to get published, also has an ISBN number: 505002496X.

In this post, we will see A picture book of astronomy by Boris Levin and Lidia Radlova.
About the book
The book has several topics in basic astronomy in the form of questions and answers (total 16). Each question is answered at a level that can be understood by children and illustrated gorgeously.
The book was translated from the Russian by Tracy Kuehn, and the wonderful drawings are by Elizaveta Radlova and was published by Raduga in 1988.
In this post, we will see the book Beautiful Vasilisa: Russian Fairy Tales. Vasilisa the Beautiful is a well known Russian folktale.
About the book
The book is a collection of sixteen fairy tales from Russia. They include stories of Tsars, Princesses, witches, boys, girls, various animals, and magical creatures. There are several fabulous illustrations to go with the stories. Along with the story of Vasilisa, there are 15 other tales in the book.
Baba Yaga is here (not the John Wick one though;)!
The book was edited by Irina Zheleznova and was designed by Vladimir Minayev. The book was published by RAduga first in 1966, with four reprints in the subsequent years: 1974, 1981 and 1984. Different stories were translated by various translators as given in the contents.
The book was translated in Hindi and Marathi, at least what I know of. Since it was a popular title it might have been translated into more Indian languages. Please do let us know if you know/have translations in any other languages.
Note: There is a bad scan of the Hindi version on the archive, which we have cleaned and added back (the link above), with a lot of effort and time. It took much longer to clean it than anticipated, yet the results are not that good or satisfactory. I thought of abandoning the cleaning midway several times, but since no other scan was available, it was indeed cleaned.
It is an appeal to people who scan books, to take some time and effort to scan them, (preferably using flatbed scanners) otherwise, it doesn’t do anyone any good. If you are taking photos with a camera make sure that noticeable warp is not there. Perhaps when one gets the physical copy of the book we will update this one, or if you have the book please scan and post the link.
There is also a Soviet-era cartoon film (in Russian, 1977) with the title Vasilisa Prekrasnaya (Vasilia the Beautiful) though this corresponds to story The Frog Tsarvena (Tsarevna Lyagushka) in the book. The visuals are amazing…
Another Soviet era (1939) BW film I found with the title Vasilisa Prekrasnaya (Vasilia the Beautiful) again this corresponds to story The Frog Tsarvena (Tsarevna Lyagushka) in the book.

In this post, we will see the book Fundamentals of Geology by V. Obruchev.
About the book (from the Preface)
Hence, we are entitled to say that every person should be acquainted with its (geology’s) basic principles. And the purpose of this book is to impart him this knowledge. Geology, therefore, can-not be a collection of stories about interesting things, mysterious events, or instructive comparisons taken at random from the vast realm of science, it must be expounded systematically. The reader will become acquainted with the activity of nature’s forces which he can personally observe in the neighbourhood of his town or village, in the highlands or on the plains, with the work of running, still and ground waters, with the activity of the wind and ice and with its results, visible both in the rock formations which make up the land forms and in the destruction and transformation of the latter.
When the reader has become acquainted with the work of these forces, which we call external, he will be told of other forces hidden in the bowels of the Earth which give vent to their energy in mountain-building, eruption of volcanoes and earthquakes. Then, he will be given a brief outline of the Earth’s history, of the origin and development of life and he will be told about the catastrophic events that have taken place during this time. He will learn of the formation of useful minerals and the regularity of their occurrence, especially in the U.S.S.R. The concluding chapter deals with geological documents and the
methods used in studying traces of past events which throw light on the Earth’s history.
This book, naturally, cannot embrace the entire realm of geology; it is confined to physical or dynamic geology, a branch dealing with the activity of the external and internal forces which shape and change the Earth’s crust. Very little is said of historical geology, which covers a wide field of the history of the Earth, and only scanty attention is paid to the science of useful deposits — the third branch of geology which examines the results of the activity of the natural forces.
Of the fourth branch — petrography or petrology — the science of rock formations that make up the earth’s crust, we give only the essentials. Physical geology is an introduction to these more specialized branches of geology and the book serves this purpose.
It is a popular book, designed for young readers who are acquainted with the rudiments of physics and chemistry.
The book was translated from the Russian by David Myshne and Persy Ludwick and was published by Foreign Languages Publishing House in 1959 (from worldcat entry). This book was digitised in the Digital Library of India project, as it has Osmania University stamp. And has three different links as given under (same book in all the links).

Some of you might be wondering what is the difference between the two?
A user channel will list only the titles added by that user, while a collection can encompass additions from other users also. In this collection, we will try to add other titles added by other users so that we have all of them under one comprehensive resource.
Both the links are working, this is just for your information. By default, the collection lists the titles by their Views (most views at the top), while the user channel lists the latest uploads first. These views can be changed from the sorting options on the page.
Next on the agenda is to revive all the non-working links and fixing some minor issues reported on many books (missing pages etc.).
We might see some Kannada language books soon.
Also, many thanks to @mukundhp11 who has been contributing books recently.
Professor N. Glinka’s book Problems and Exercises in General Chemistry closely corresponds to the well- known textbook General Chemistry by the same author.
Mir Publishers have prepared an English translation of the latest, 21st Russian edition of the textbook, which has been divided into two volumes to facilitate work with the book.
Many generations of students used N. Glinka’s General Chemistry in studying the subject; secondary school graduates used it in preparing for their entrance examinations to higher educational establishments, and specialists of non-chemical professions often find answers to their questions in it.
(from the preface)
In addition to problems and exercises of a traditional form, many sections of the present book contain review questions that will permit the student to see how well he or she has mastered the relevant material. Each question is followed by a set of answers, from among which one or more correct ones must be chosen; sometimes it is also necessary to substantiate the answer by selecting the correct explanation from among a number of choices following the question. Should the chosen answer fail to coincide completely or partly with those given at the end of the book, this will indicate that the student must again study the introductory text to the given section, or the relevant material in the textbook.
The book was edited by V. A. Rabinovich and Kh. M. Rubina and was translated from the Russian by G. Leib. First published by Mir in 1981, second publishing in 1986.
With this we have completed the General Chemistry Series by N.L. Glinka. Having read all the three books anyone will be completely prepared for 10+2 Physical and Inorganic Chemistry. I would once again heartily thank Amit for his big help and support. Highly appreciated!

In this post we will see the Volume 2 of General Chemistry series written by Nikolai Glinka and edited by V. Rabinovich.
About the book ( From the Back Cover)
Professor N. Glinka’s textbook systematizes the theoretical aspects and includes an extensive collection of reference data tor the course in general chemistry. Great attention is given to the structure of atoms and molecules, the laws of chemical reactions, and oxidation-reduction, processes. The book has been very popular in the Soviet Union and other countries for many years. During the author’s life, it saw 12 editions in Russian and was repeatedly published in other languages. The time that has elapsed after the author’s death, however required the introduction of appreciable amendments into the book, first of all because of the deep penetration of chemistry into many branches of the national economy and of the tremendous growth in the volume of the factual material of chemistry. The required revision of the textbook was carried out in its sixteenth Russian edition (1973). An additional revision of the book mainly due to the transition to SI units of physical quantities and the associated alterations in the terminology was carried out in the nineteenth Russian edition (1977). The present English text has been translated from the 21st Russian edition (1980), and to facilitate work with the book, has been divided into two volumes. The book is intended for students of higher educational institutions not majoring in chemistry. It will also be very helpful for persons studying the fundamentals of chemistry independently, and for students of chemical technical schools and the senior classes of secondary schools.
This book was hugely popular in the Soviet Union and other countries for many years. It was first published in 1958 and revised from the 1980 enlarged and updated Russian edition. Like Volume 1 this book is written in an engaging and easy to understand language. General Chemistry Volume 1&2 together cover completely the Physical and Inorganic Chemistry at 10+2 level. Nikolai Glinka wrote a problem book called Problems And Exercises In General Chemistry accompanying these two volumes and which is likewise a brilliant book. We will see it in the next post.
