MediaDB / «Professor Minorca's Finest Hour" Pal Bekes: download fb2, read online
About the book: 2013 / Don’t say a word against the noble hat lover Aunt Teresa - she is always right and knows exactly what to do in any circumstances, be it relationships with circus riders, penmanship or proper nutrition. So Dorka doesn’t contradict her, but obediently goes with her aunt to the market so that she can buy chicken for broth. But who knew that the most ordinary trip through the shopping arcades would end like this: the spell of the Great Magician would be lifted, a new acquaintance - Professor Minorca - would suddenly speak, a battle would break out between the traders and the butchers and Aunt Teresa would be to blame for all this?! How could she have known that this war had been going on for many years and that only a simple spell helped maintain peace! An aunt, a niece, a professor and a fairy found themselves between two camps... And try to figure out why the fighting is going on and what miracle can stop the confrontation! But, perhaps, in Pal Bekes’s witty fairy tale “Professor Minorca’s Finest Hour,” it is the child who “looks to the root” and sees what adults don’t notice?! This is already the sixth book by the classic of Hungarian children's literature, published in Russia (previously published “Treasures on the Street of the Son of the White Horse”, “Woe-Wizard”, Wise Corrector of Flaws”, “Conqueror of Fear” and “Badger from Our Yard”»).
