The Extraordinary Adventures of Karik and Valya make Gulliver's Travels pale in comparison. Two children and a college professor turn Lilliputian in size and enter an exciting and dangerous world of insects.
They fight fierce predators, escape an underwater prison, sail turbulent waters and fly on a bumblebee. The brave explorers need to use their knowledge of entomology to overcome obstacles and find their way home.
This book is a rare combination of action-packed adventure with serious science.
The original Russian-language publication rolled off the press in 1937 and, after numerous new editions and millions of copies sold, remains one of the most popular books for children in Eastern Europe. This translation makes it available to English-speaking audiences.
