"The Butter Factory" written by Yakov Miller and illustrated by Pavel Basmanov in 1931. Масло (Maslo) in Russian means butter, but it means also oil paint. I looked at the the beautiful painterly images and thought about an oil paint factory with cows. #soviet#sovietart

I do think 'The Butter Mill' is a more appetising translation!

"About All Sorts of Animals" written by Galina Vladychitsa and illustrated Evgeny Rachev in 1930. Incredible renderings of Zoo animals in a limited palette. Rachev is so good at animal observing. #soviet#sovietart

"Jimmy Joy, Visits the Pioneers" written by Lydia Lesnaya and illustrated beautifully by Boris Kustodiev in 1925. An American boy wants to visit the #Soviet Union because there are pioneers who wear red neckerchiefs and they beat their loud drums... #sovietart

"Chocolate" written by Lev Zilov and illustrated by Vera Ivanovna in 1928. The #soviet children books instead of fairy tales introduced children how things were made. #sovietart

"The Spring March" written by Esfir (Esteher) Emden and illustrated by and illustrated by Vera Ivanova in 1930. The book might be about the first meeting of pioneers which was held a year earlier, in August 1929, and the First International Children's Congress was held then too.

"The Wonder Tree" written by Korney Chukovsky and illustrated by Vladimir Konashevich in 1926. I really like the more "simple" style of Konashevich from the 1920's and book covers are incredibly stricking. #soviet#sovietart
