5 STARS
This is a cute childrens book about two kids
going to Moscow. It has quite a bit of little of
everything.
The story is simple and can be colored part of it.
It shows some special places in Moscow.
Also has a page with english and Russian words
Has Russian alaphabet, map. place to write
about your trip, some pockets for to keep memories
in. It also comes with cd. Some russian songs &
music,story of Nutcracker. It is a good sample
of Introducing Moscow to kids. The songs are
catchy to listen to it. I have listened to cd and good
listen to it over and over.
I was given this book & cd from Author through
Librarything in exchange of honest review.
It even has emergency numbers and websites
in Moscow for you. ( )

This book was really different but packaged really cool! It comes with a world map, a map of Moscow, some stickers and has pages in the back you can color and some activities. It has the Russian alphabet and some words you can learn as well as a CD that comes with the book. This is the perfect book for anyone visiting or moving to Moscow.

I think the pictures are adorable and quirky but my kids didn't seem that interested in them. They also couldn't seem to hold their interest through the story. There are lots of words per page and they just didn't seem into it. But I was really enjoying the different places that Bronte & Frank visit and learning a bit about the city. I thought the story was cute but wasn't in love with it.

So there are definitely some mixed feelings with this book. I think that it would be perfect for some but it's aimed at younger kids {it says 3+ but my daughter of 7 seemed to think it's a 'baby book'}. Since my kids didn't love it and I was only okay with the story I think I'll give this one 3/5 stars. ( )
