Abstract:
The article illustrates that “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” has a number of features characteristic of the novel as a kind of epic: a fairly large volume of work, the epicness of the author's story, full of dialogues and monologues. It is noticed that the plot narrative is not as detailed as in the classic samples of novels, although it has three plot lines. The work is quite simple in compositional structure, and the characters at the time of the story are almost formed.

This article deals with the novel “The Prince and his Ants” (1893) by Luigi Bertelli (1860–1920), who wrote under the pseudonym of Vamba, who was one of the founders of classical Italian children’s literature, and whose work is little known in Russia. The plot about the adventures of a lazy boy turned into an ant is compared with other books about insects. The pretexts of the novel are the works of Alfred Brehm, Jean Henri Fabre, Frances Hubert, Carlo Emery, popular science articles in Italian children’s magazines, the novel “The Adventures of a Cricket” (1877) by Ernest Candez.

Abstract:
Red Zora and Her Gang1 (orig. Die rote Zora und ihre Bande) is a 1941 novel by the German-Swiss author Kurt Held (Kurt Kläber), inspired by the Croatian mentality and Croatian history. While it was enormously popular in Germany, the Croatian translation was issued only in 2017. In this paper, we analyse the hypothetical position of Red Zora within the Croatian canon of children’s literature established at the time the novel was written. Red Zora tends towards realism in shaping children’s reality based on unusual adventures in common with the most dominant of children’s novels so that it fits

Having spent countless hours in my youth reading and re-reading J. R. R. Tolkien lore, it was hard for me to miss Adrian Hogendoorn’s appropriation of the subtitle of Tolkien’s most accessible work. Tolkien published The Hobbit in 1937 with the subtitle There and Back Again as a children’s adventure novel, detailing the quest of Bilbo Baggins, his 13 dwarfish companions, and the wizard, Gandalf. The quest to reclaim the kingdom and treasure of the Lonely Mountain begins and ends in Bilbo’s sleepy, but respectable hobbit-hole, Bag End.
