In January, a review of the first volume about the adventures of Malinka, the youngest sibling in the family of Mr. Borsuk and Mrs. Lisica, was published . Today we invite you to read the second volume! There is no less, and even more!
Sweet as Raspberry
Borek, Szperaczek and Róża have their favorite sister – Malinka. She is a small badger child who usually – due to her age and abilities – does not take part in the adventures of her siblings. This time, however, the parents are going to visit friends and leave the children alone. Borek, Szperaczek and Róża are given the task to take care of the youngest offspring and make sure that it falls asleep peacefully. But what to do when monsters live in the bedroom and Malinka is afraid? Don’t be scared and come up with a way to banish fears from a cozy children’s room!
visually
Brigitte Luciani and Eve Tharlet have delighted the reader before, only now they have confirmed their great talent. The cover of Malinka shimmers beautifully and although we observe a scared badger baby and … a monster on it, we know that this story can end with a happy ending . After all, badgers and foxes have surprised us more than once! The only thing I don’t like is the way the book is stitched. The endpaper and title page seem to be isolated from the rest of the book. In the future, an inattentive reader may simply tear them off … I am surprised, because the previous volume did not contain this shortcoming.
Favorite
The series about Malinka was published by the Egmont publishing house in 2023. This is another of the My First Comic 5+ proposals , i.e. reading intended for the youngest readers to read on their own or read with their parents. As you can guess, the content as such is not much, but the pictures are extremely colorful and enriched with many details, and the message is uncomplicated. In addition, the reading contains a valuable lesson for parents – drawing conclusions from the adventures of a patchwork family, you can learn how to deal with monsters in (and not only) children’s bedrooms. To sum up – the series about Malinka is one of the most interesting comics for the youngest, taking into account the others, published at a similar time.
