Interiors of libraries in a country house. Home library in a modern interior

: “For me, a house without books is like without a soul. At least one rack should be in every room - otherwise the space seems cold and featureless. A beautiful two-tier library, as in the photo, is justified under two conditions. First, if you have a large living area. After all, giving a chic double-height space as a “book depository” is a real luxury. And secondly, if all your volumes are in hardcovers with beautiful spines. All major bookstores offer restoration and binding services for old books.

Living room

Decorator Leyla Ulukhanli comments: “ Low shelving, literally creeping across the floor, is an interesting idea for solving the problem of a low ceiling. But, for my taste, the interior turned out to be too minimalist. For more comfort, I would replace the hard seats with deep soft chairs. Regarding the color and composition, I have no comments - everything is done correctly. The interior is not overloaded with details and looks very unusual!”

Hallway

Designer Lotta Alvar, the author of the project, comments:“If the area of ​​the apartment does not allow allocating a separate room for the library, any other room is also suitable - a living room, an office, a bedroom, and even an entrance hall. I like when books and magazines are simply stacked - in this form they look very natural. To make cleaning easier, I decided to raise the stacks a little off the floor by placing them on shelves screwed to the wall just above the baseboard. It turned out something like columns at the entrance to the living room - convenient and interesting!”

Cabinet

The authors of the project, architects Edward Esfo and Peter Guzi, comment:“The office of horror film director Marcus Nispel, author of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The New Frankenstein, looks so deceptively harmless. Nispel cannot live a day without books: from them he draws ideas for his scripts. Therefore, we placed the library right next to his desk in the office. Thanks to the high ceilings, wall-to-wall shelving looks very impressive. They emphasize the dignity of this space!”

Lounge area

Decorator Olga Timyanskaya comments:“Reading books and slowly leafing through magazines, sitting comfortably on a wide sofa, is an incomparable pleasure! The interior in the photo is conducive to such a pastime. It is, however, very functional. The rack looks unusual, more like a storage system for CDs and DVDs. On the other hand, it’s even more convenient: the books lie on their side, and you don’t have to twist your neck unnaturally to read what is written on the spine.”

Bedroom

The author of the project, architect Valerie Maserat, comments:“Reading before bed is a sacred thing. However, you can’t fit all your favorite books on the bedside table! The owner of this apartment is lucky: the bookcase is located at arm's length from the pillow. The only “but”: this option is not suitable for allergy sufferers, since any rack can be regarded not only as a storehouse of knowledge, but also as a dust collector.

AT modern world the era of electronic innovation reigns. Almost every average city dweller works, writes and reads using electronic document formats, various gadgets and online books. But despite this, among us there are still lovers of printed publications who from year to year replenish the home library with classic works by great writers or works by contemporary authors in hard or soft cover. When a personal library has more than a dozen books, the question arises of decorating its interior.

Choosing a room for a library in the house

Of course, a separate room, allocated individually for the storage of books, is perfect option. But most often it happens that the library has to be designed as part of the interior of the living room, hallway, study or other premises. However, professional designers claim that the library area, when properly designed, not only does not spoil the room, but also decorates the space. The choice of a room for arranging a storage area and reading books depends on total rooms in a dwelling. Most often, with a lack of space, books are placed in the hall or living room. But if you think it over carefully and choose original shelving, you can place a library collection in almost any room. You should not store printed publications in the kitchen - there is always high humidity, and this can provoke their deformation. In addition, there is a risk of splattering the books with drops of grease or steam. Dark basements or storage rooms are also not suitable for this purpose - there they can be affected by mold, fungi or rodents.

If the library is large in order not to "eat up" a lot of space in one of the rooms, it makes sense to distribute books and place them in several rooms: favorites can be identified in the bedroom, children's literature on the shelves in the kids' room, and all the rest should be placed in the office or hall. At the same time, it is important to take into account that books tend to collect dust, so their number in rooms intended for sleeping should be limited.

Be sure to consider the quadrature of the room in which you decide to equip the library. There should be enough space in the room, you do not need to stack books on the shelves very tightly so that more fit. On the contrary, place books on the shelves freely and arbitrarily. They love space and air, so the room must be well ventilated.

Choosing furniture for your home library

When you have already decided on a room for placing books, the next step is to choose, in fact, the furniture itself, in which printed publications will be stored. These can be cabinets, shelving, individual wall shelves, and more. Here you need to be guided, first of all, by the number of books available. If you also inherited the library of your mother and grandmother, and books have already filled the whole house, then you should pay attention to special racks that are made to order according to the height of the room. They can be placed, for example, in an office or living room along the walls. Such book "houses" have a huge number of different compartments - this is very convenient for sorting the library.
The second option for home library furniture is bookcases. It can be both traditional cabinets with glass doors, and their modern analogue- wardrobes, which are made of wood to order and very often decorated with carvings. The latter are ideal for a library located in an office that is designed in a classic style.
Well, the third option is a variety of wall shelves. They are suitable for those who have a "young" and not particularly voluminous library. Shelves are often used in modern interior styles as they are small, mobile and most can be painted to fit. general style premises.

Classical

A classic home library is necessarily located in a separate room or spacious office. This style is characterized by massive wardrobes, luxurious decor elements, a lot of wooden elements in the design of the entire room. There is a special place for reading - these are comfortable chairs or a sofa, a desk or a coffee table. To make the atmosphere even more conducive to reading, install floor or wall lamps with a lampshade, and lay carpets on the floor.

Unusual book storage systems

Today, not everyone can afford a classical library at home, but this does not mean at all that it should be abandoned altogether. An excellent alternative is storage on mobile or island structures.

If you connect your imagination or dig around on the Internet, you will find that it is really possible to arrange shelves for storing books in the most unexpected places: under the windowsill (if there is no battery), on the basis of a coffee table, under the stairs, along the perimeter of all walls in the hallway or living room, in mobile rack, which can perform the function of zoning the room, etc.

To prevent the library from looking boring, by building shelving or shelves on the wall, make them asymmetrical and arrange the books by color.

Lighting in the home library

Despite the fact that doctors advise reading in good natural light, such a bright color is fatal for books. Storing them in an area of ​​bright sunlight causes the pages to warp and turn yellow. That is why it is worth providing a local lighting system for the library. This may not be a bright general light on the ceiling, but a wall sconce in a place separated for reading. It is desirable to hang windows with blackout curtains or blinds. By following the basic tips for designing a personal collection of books, you can create a very enviable library on your own. Do not forget to sort the titles on the shelves according to genre or alphabetically - this general principle organization of literature in all public libraries. It should be noted that it is very convenient in further operation.

Project "My Home Library"

(March–April 2010)

The project involved children 9-10 years old (grades 3-4). Goals and objectives of the project:

  • to form in children an idea of ​​the home library as a family value, passed down from generation to generation;
  • stimulate interest in books, in reading;
  • develop Creative skills children, literary writing skills;
  • develop research skills.

The project, according to teachers, successfully supplemented the educational work:

  • primary school students are engaged in research work in various school subjects, but reading and books almost never become the object of their research;
  • research often means the study of information from books, the Internet, etc. Of course, this develops skills in working with published sources of information. At the same time, the result of the work rarely becomes a “discovery”, i.e. getting a new one, no one known information; rather, it is an imitation of the study, which reduces the motivation of students. The object of study "My Home Library" is unique for each project participant and has not been studied by definition;
  • during the study, participants had to ask their parents, other older relatives about the history of the family. Such communication is all the more valuable for strengthening mutual understanding between generations, since usually adults are interested in the affairs of children, while children show less interest in mutual interest.

The project participants were given the task of telling about their home library: how it was created, what family heirlooms it keeps, how many books the library has and which ones (by type of publications, topics, etc.). Since most children are not familiar with their home "book collections", even the children's books in them, it was necessary to study the library beforehand.

The final part of the work is writing an article that must meet the following requirements:

  • be interesting to readers, including those who are not familiar with the author,
  • contain unique, exclusive information,
  • information must be accurate, truthful,
  • need to show creativity in the disclosure of the topic and in the design (illustrations, photographs, use only your own, not from the Internet).

The project participants worked with interest, even those who do not like to read. Many noted that a real acquaintance with their own library took place.

Many children not only expressed a desire to leave their personal library to their descendants, but also thought about what it would be like.

STUDENTS' WORKS OF THE 3rd CLASS

Bondarchuk Volodymyr, 3 "A"

How do we get home - in our books? asked the Skeleton, standing in the middle of the room. “After all, there are about four hundred of them in the home library.
- And let's go to the oldest book in the house, - Number π suggested, quickly calculating all the options. She will definitely help us!

And our heroes are on their way.
The oldest book in the house was S.I. Ozhegov's Dictionary of the Russian Language, published in 1952. The dictionary was the thickest volume in the library and the wisest because it knew about all things.

Seeing the guests, the Dictionary shook itself, opened up, rustled its pages, yellowed from old age, and said:
- How can I help you, the inhabitants of the books?
“We fell out of the books,” the friends replied. - How can we get home?
“You must find out what type of publication each of you is from,” answered Old book. – There are four main types of publications: fiction, popular science books, textbooks and reference books.
- Fiction includes poems and poems, stories, novels, novels, fairy tales and myths, - continued the Dictionary.
- I remember I'm from fiction! shouted John Silver. - From the book "Treasure Island" by R. Stevenson.
- The popular science group includes publications devoted to various sciences. In our home library there are books on physics, medicine, economics, psychology, on raising children, - said the old volume.
- I'm from popular science books, - said Galileo Galilei.
- Textbooks and tutorials make educational publications.
- I'm from the textbook " The world" said Skeleton. – So, this type of publication is mine.
- Reference books include dictionaries of Russian and foreign languages, reference books, encyclopedias, atlases. I also belong to these publications, - said the Dictionary.
- We are also from reference literature, - said the Letter "A" and the Number π.
- That's lovely! – admired friends. - Now each of us will quickly find his home.
- Nu here is, now you know, who where. From your answers, I realized that you all live in the books of a little master, - said the Dictionary.
- Wise Dictionary, how is our library world created? asked the ever curious Galileo.
- Vova chooses books in the store together with adults, some books were presented to him, and some of the books were read by his parents in his childhood. In total, the boy has about 60 books on the shelves, the old volume answered.
- And I know how many of them he read, - said Number pi, loving precision. - Thirty books - exactly half.
- And I know that books in the home library are used often, - put in the Letter "A". Every day every family member reads a book at least once. And Vova reads not only textbooks every day, but also other literature. New books appear in our library every month, but they do not stay on the shelves. You won't find books with uncut pages here. There are old worn volumes and small volumes in the house, but the owners watch them, and if the book gets sick, it will be glued and stitched.
“But I know which book is the most popular in the house,” said John Silver. - This is a recipe book. I had to meet with her, because I'm the ship's cook.

And then suddenly something rang. I opened my eyes and realized that this whole amazing story was a dream. And I wrote my story about this wonderful dream, because everything that was told about my home library turned out to be true.

Gyulmagomedova Zhanna, 3 "A"

A library is a collection, a repository of books, where I can find information and learn a lot of interesting, new and informative things for my study and education. The library is a friend and assistant, always ready to help out and suggest the right choice, to give practical advice. I want to tell you about my home library.

I have not a big library It contains about 130 books. Of these, 83 books are my personal, 22 books were read by parents in childhood, 25 books are adult books. I started collecting books at the age of 7. My first books were given to me by my parents. All the books that are collected in my library are very dear to me. I have read all the children's literature. I remember how each book appeared in my home library.

I have preserved 22 books from the preschool period in a good, tidy condition. It is interesting for me to leaf through them, and I often read them to my younger sister. The first book I read was a collection of short stories for extracurricular reading.

Basically, my library contains fiction (101 books, 91 books of domestic and 10 books of foreign authors). There are scientific and popular science publications that my dad reads. The library has 19 educational publications, 10 reference books. Educational publications are tutorials: "Non-standard tasks" (in mathematics), "Development of creative and intellectual abilities." There are reference publications on geography, reference books about countries and peoples of the world, about various wonders of the world.

I mostly bought books for my home library with my mother. Often buys and gives me books (mostly educational) dad, as well as friends and acquaintances.

Our home library is mainly the merit of the pope. He loves to read and buys many different interesting books. Thanks to my dad, I have a lot of books and I love to read.
There are no very old books in my library, the earliest editions are from 1983. I have books autographed by writers: Valentina Zhdanova and N. F. Kozlov.
In my home library, the books are in perfect order, although we use them often as a family. Our family loves to read.

Ivanova Alina, 3 "A"

An institution that collects and stores books and lends them to readers is called a library. Bibliotheke - the addition of the words biblion (book) and theke (warehouse, storage).

We also have a lot of books at home. This is our home library. It is small - only about one thousand books. Here are fiction books, and popular science, and dictionaries of foreign languages ​​(English and German), reference books, encyclopedias and, of course, children's literature.

Most of all in our library of fiction. These are about 600 books of domestic and foreign writers. We have books by O. Henry and M. Druon, T. Dreiser and A. Dumas, M. Lermontov and A. Pushkin, A. Ostrovsky, N. Karamzin and many others. The shelves of our library are filled with the collected works of A. S. Pushkin in 10 volumes, M. Lermontov in 4 volumes, N. Leskov in 6 volumes, etc.

Most of all we have books by domestic authors of past centuries. There are about 350 of them - this is prose, and poetry, and detective stories, and science fiction, and military memoirs, and historical works. Novels and poetry predominate (about 280 books, i.e. 80%). In our family, people read and read not only authors of the 19th and 20th centuries, but also modern writers, such as B. Akunin, D. Brown, A. Marinina and others.

From popular science books in our library there are several publications on astronomy, about UFOs. We also have textbooks. These are different music textbooks, in which notes are printed and it is told about composers. There are also books on how to develop a good memory, a tutorial on speed reading techniques.

From the time my parents and grandparents were studying, we have kept reference books on construction. There are new reference books on medicine, medicinal plants, encyclopedic dictionaries.

Of course, I keep books from those times when I did not go to school and could not read. My mother read many books to me. These were short stories or poems by Russian poets. When my mother read to me, I listened attentively to her and looked at the colorful drawings. It was interesting for me even just to look through them, because I knew all the stories and poems by heart and told the stories myself from the pictures. And I also have toy books, theater books. Toy books are such small books, in the middle of which a rubber toy is placed, if you press it, it will squeak. And the theater book is a big book that you open - and cardboard houses and different characters stand in front of you. You can also make up your own story.

I carefully keep all the books from my preschool childhood, although some had to be glued a little. Sometimes I look through them, read them to my dolls. I did give a few children's books to my younger cousins ​​and sisters. Let them learn to read too. After all, I also got my books from the children's section of our library (and this is about 250 books) from my older relatives.

And sometimes we go with mom and dad to a bookstore, where they always buy me some book that we choose together. I like to go to bookstores because I have never left without a book. Sometimes my friends or one of my relatives give me books for my birthday. Then they are on title page write their wishes to me and sign their name. My parents also have such books that were given to them.

I have not yet read all the books from my library, but I will definitely read it, because it is very exciting. Sometimes my friends borrow books from me. I give them my books and they give me theirs.
I take good care of all books. My mother taught me this - not to tear books, not to crush them, not to read at the kitchen table, so as not to dirty them. Then they will be preserved for a long time and will be passed on to our descendants. So we have preserved the book of 1935, published by the author Lev Savin, Candide's sortie, or May Westphalia not perish in the abyss of laughter. Someday I will read it.

There is another book that is especially dear to me because it was made with my own hands. I myself composed a fairy tale, which I called "Emelya". I took the fairy tale “By the Pike’s Command” as a basis, but it turned out to be a completely different story, in which the main thing is intelligence, kindness, ingenuity and work. When I composed this fairy tale, my mother edited it a little, helped to design the illustrations, and together with her we made a cover for our book - and now it is ready.
I love to read books, it's a pity that I don't have much time for reading. And for some reason, I still love it when my mom reads to me. She has a very gentle voice, and she also knows how to change it for a different hero - you will listen. When I grow up, I will also read to my children.

Lyakh Ksenia, 3 "A"

Hello, my name is Xenia and I will tell you about my home library. It has a lot of different and interesting books. Their number is approximately 85.
All our books are divided into three parts: these are my books, books of adults and books that are passed down through the generation. And even though there is only one book in the third group, my great-great-grandmother reread this book. The book is called "Chizhik - a bird with character", its author is V. Chudakova. The book was published in 1961 and is the oldest in our library.

I have many books about dogs, as I am a very big fan of them. The books are written about the content, training, breeds and treatment of dogs. After all, I myself have a four-legged friend - a dog. And she may need my help at any time. Dogs are my hobby.

Books for adults are books about medicine, cooking, detective stories by Daria Dontsova and novels by L. Tolstoy (“War and Peace”, “Anna Karenina”), M. Gorky (“Mother”), A. Dumas (“The Count of Monte Cristo ").
The pride of our family library is the “Newest encyclopedic Dictionary”, which has 1424 pages! I also have many collections of poems from different countries.
Books teach us kindness, love, justice, intelligence and all very good qualities. And that's why I love to read!

Rustamov Samir, 3 "A"

I have pain at home our library. We have been collecting it for a long time: books by various authors, fairy tales, encyclopedias on history, geography, astronomy, many books about animals, plants, and travel.
The books are on the shelves. I arranged them in order. Books that I often need to study are on the same shelf. In my free time, I like to read the works of Pushkin, Marshak, Krylov's fables. I especially love adventure stories.

Zibert Sofia, 3 "A"

There are 463 books in my home library. These are novels and short stories, novels, poems and poems. Of course, in my library there are books about exploits and adventures, educational books, educational literature and encyclopedias. The most "adult" book is the works of Sergei Mikhalkov, it was published in 1954.


When my parents were little and my grandparents were young, books were in great short supply, just like everything else. In order to buy a good book, it was necessary to collect waste paper, then get the coveted ticket to receive the book, then wait for the turn to come up, and only then, having paid, it was possible to bring home the long-awaited treasure - the BOOK! Thanks to waste paper collection points, collections of works by Pushkin, Lermontov, Yesenin appeared in our library ...

A special place in the bookcase is occupied by a series of books from 20 volumes "The Library of Adventures". It includes works by recognized masters of the word - "The Three Musketeers" by Dumas, "Treasure Island" by Stevenson, "Dagger" by Rybakov, "Children of Captain Grant" by J. Verne, "Notes on Sherlock Holmes" by C. Doyle. All these works were filmed and are still loved by viewers of different generations.

In the library of any family there are books about the war, our family is no exception. “The Tale of a Real Man” by B. Polevoy, “The Young Guard” by A. Fadeev, “Memoirs” by G.K. Zhukov are the memory of the exploits of ordinary people, the courage of the people, the memory of the tragedy in every family, of pain, frozen in words and bitterness of loss.

At the end of the 20th century, such a genre as detective became especially popular in Russia. Detective novels by D. Dontsova and T. Ustinova began to appear in our house, as well as many series of good and not so good books. But when my grandfather got severe asthma, we decided to give away these books. After that, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Turgenev, Karamzin, Tyutchev, Blok, Fet, Grigoriev, Tsvetaeva, Akhmatova, Gumilyov, Mandelstam, Brodsky remained in the home library, i.e. such works that can be read and re-read, those books that are relevant at any time.

Quite recently, our country was considered the most reading in the world, books were a real asset, they were valued, they were protected. Public libraries were as popular as pizzerias or cafes are today. Today, people prefer to watch movies, children and young people love comics, we spend money on yellow press more and more often, we are spiritually impoverished, and yet a BOOK is available to people more than ever, and it costs not much more than a thick glossy magazine!

Atoyan Marina, 3 "B"

My little home library

I have a lot of books, the total number of all books is 164. I hope that our home library will be replenished with more.
In my library, math textbooks outweigh the scales. A little less fiction. In third place are popular science publications, and the last line is occupied by reference literature.
In my collection of fiction books, most of all are classics written by Russian authors of the 19th and 20th centuries: A. S. Pushkin, I. A. Krylov, N. V. Gogol and others.

We don’t have much, but still we have popular science publications: encyclopedias, dictionaries, they are dedicated to one science - mathematics (my mother is a mathematics teacher). I'm just trying to cope with these huge textbooks, which are filled with exact science, and I'm trying to understand them.
I have one tutorial, he teaches me English. This is my personal textbook. It itself is small, but hundreds of thousands of words are hidden in it.

I have preserved books from the preschool period, I feel sorry for throwing them away, they kindly remind me of my childhood, excite my memory. They are pretty beat up, but still loved. And the best book is a collection of fairy tales of the world. Another book that I love very much is Zhukov's ABC. This is the first book I have read on my own. So far I have read only children's literature from our library.
Our family library was created with love for each book. We acquired them from all sources: both in the store and old books of relatives and friends. There are books on which the price of 1 ruble 66 kopecks is written. These prices don't even exist anymore!

The books in my library are well-groomed, I repair them in time, glue them.
At the age of 10, I understand that books are my education, literacy, and success. And when you have your own little, very nice library, it's great!

Epanchintseva Daria, 3 "B"

I have a small library. It consists of two parts: my children's books and adults. Children's books 83. I think that this is not too much and not too little.

Most of all I have fiction books by Russian authors published in the 21st century. There are popular science publications, such as "The Most Beautiful and Famous Flowers of the World", a collection of 22 volumes dedicated to great artists. Educational publications are self-instruction books in English, various study guides: on modeling from plasticine, crafts from natural material, paper crafts, origami, beadwork. Reference publications - dictionaries on Russian spelling, school word-formation dictionaries of the Russian language, an explanatory dictionary, an encyclopedia on human anatomy and physiology, encyclopedias about everything in the world.

I have books inherited from my mom and dad, they read them in their childhood. The oldest of them was published in 1985. She is not in very good condition, but I treat her with care. A few of my first preschool books have survived, but I give most of them to my younger cousin, he tells everyone whose books they are, and treats them in a special way. No one remembers which one I read first, it must have been a primer. It was interesting to remember and leaf through my first books, they were not only read, but also colored in some places. Now, of course, I don't draw in books.

My home library was created from the first days of my life by my parents, grandparents. There are books given to me by girlfriends and friends. Now I am already participating in the selection of books for myself, for my younger brother, for my friends. I love the books of V. Yu. Dragunsky, E. N. Uspensky, fables, fairy tales, magazines. We buy books for extracurricular reading in the store, rarely when I take them from the school library, because I like to give them to my brother after reading. I like to read to him, he listens to me very attentively.

There is a special book in my library, because it is signed by the author himself personally to me. Yury Gorustovich came to our class in 2008, told about his books, I really liked his poems, and he signed them for me.

My first books are somewhat shabby, with painted pages. The old books that I inherited from my parents and grandmothers are also not in excellent condition, but all, if necessary, glued, I treat them with particular care. All books purchased recently are in excellent condition.

The older I get, the more carefully I treat books, because I learn a lot of new and interesting things from them, with the help of them I become smarter. I also want them to last longer in good condition so that my relatives can read them later.

When preparing this article, it was interesting for me to once again recall and leaf through my first books, to find out that books are different types, to disassemble them on the shelves according to the type of publication. Find out which authors are more, what years my books were published. I knew what books I had. Now I know everything about them!

Kim Pavel, 3 "B"

My grandmother started collecting our home library. She said that there had never been such an abundance of books before. To buy a book for the home library, one had to stand in line or order books from Moscow. Grandmother bought collections of works by both Russian and foreign authors.
Grandmother said that before there were no computers, DVD players, so in the evenings she loved to read books. Of the Russian authors, she read Bunin, Prishvin, Paustovsky, Mamin-Sibiryak, who wrote about love for nature, the relationship of man to nature. Of the poets, she loved Pushkin, Lermontov, Yesenin, Omar Khayyam. I read the works of A. Tolstoy, S. Alekseev, who wrote about the Great Patriotic War. I re-read the famous works of L. Tolstoy "Anna Karenina" and "War and Peace". From foreign authors she loved to read Jack London, Shakespeare, Hugo, Maupassant.

Mom continued to replenish the home library. As a child, my mother loved to read the fairy tales of Andersen, the Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault, Kipling. She reread Bazhov's fairy tales "The Malachite Box", "The Mistress of the Copper Mountain" and others. She loved Gaidar's stories "Timur and his team", "Chuk and Gek". But most of all she liked to read Arthur Conan Doyle's detective stories about Sherlock Holmes and the humorous novels by Ilf and Petrov The Golden Calf and The Twelve Chairs.

When my mother grew up, the library received works by authors that were banned in Soviet times. These are the works of M. Bulgakov (“The Master and Margarita”, “Heart of a Dog”), Solzhenitsyn (“The Gulag Archipelago”), Nabokov (“Lolita”), Akhmatova, Tsvetaeva, Gumilyov.

When I was little, my mother read me Chukovsky's poems ("The Stolen Sun", "Moydodyr", "Fedorino's grief" and others), Barto, Marshak. I was read fairy tales by Pushkin, Andersen, the Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault, Kipling.
In my personal library there are works by M. Twain, A. Volkov, Swift, Dragunsky. But most of all I like the work of JK Rowling "Harry Potter". I also like to re-read Legends and Myths of Ancient Greece. Also in my library there are encyclopedias: "Encyclopedia of rare animals", "Encyclopedia of geography", "Flags and coats of arms of world capitals".

Smelchakova Ksenia, 3 "V"

My home library has over 200 books for adults and about the same number for children. Now we are collecting a collection of books "Great Artists". We have two history teachers in our family, so there are many books on history from antiquity to the present day. Our library contains books by Russian and foreign writers: A. S. Pushkin, M. Yu. Lermontov, M. Bulgakov, Agatha Christie, Stout, Chase and others.

My favorite book is Cats with many illustrations and inserts. My friend Pasha Kim gave it to me for my birthday. I also have a lot of children's encyclopedias: about animals, plants, the human body, wonders of the world, an encyclopedia for girls, "about everything in the world."

When I was little, I loved books with poems by Mikhalkov, Barto, stories by Viktor Dragunsky, fairy tales by Andersen, the Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault, Russian folk tales. Now I'm reading the 100 Mysteries of History series and re-reading books I've read a long time ago.

Shabanova Sofia, 3 "B"

I want to start my article with the meaning of the word LIBRARY. So, the Greek bibliotheke, from biblion - book and theke - storage. My home library has over 250 books. The main part is my books, there are more than half of the entire home library. These are baby books with very beautiful illustrations that my parents read to me at a younger preschool age, and a lot of collections of fairy tales (Russian folk, Hans Christian Andersen, the Brothers Grimm and fairy tales of the peoples of the world), fairy tales and poems by the great Russian poet Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin.

In the second, most of the home library, I can include various reference publications, spelling dictionaries, dictionaries of foreign languages, encyclopedias of the Avanta publishing house, books about Ancient Egypt, mythology, collections of poems by A. Akhmatova and M. Tsvetaeva, a selection of magazine publications, such as Minerals. Treasures of the Earth”, “Open the world with Wally”, “Your funny friends are animals”, a series of funny children's detective stories by Katya Matyushkina.

Separately, I want to talk about books that occupy a special place in our library. First of all, these are books by A. S. Pushkin, we have several editions of them. The smallest book, 15mm by 20mm in size, was bought personally by me at the Lyceum named after Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin in St. Petersburg, the poem “ Winter evening". We also have a complete collection of works published in the 20th century.
I consider several editions to be an exclusive copy of my library. First, the "Book of Memory" about the soldiers Novosibirsk region who took part in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. This book was released in a limited edition, on the eve of the anniversary of the Victory. This book has the name of my friend's grandfather.

The second book is about how Komsomol members built a gold recovery plant in my mother's homeland, it was published by the team of builders on the 35th anniversary of the plant and signed by the plant director, this book contains a photograph of my grandfather.

The third book is "The Son of the Regiment", the oldest in the year of publication in my library, it was released in 1979.
I also have a book that I made with my own hands with the help of my grandparents, and the first book I read was poems by Korney Chukovsky.

From the early childhood my relatives teach me how to handle books, that when using a book, it must be placed in wrapping paper, bookmarked, in no case should the corners of the pages be bent, not thrown on the floor, that is, treated very carefully. Therefore, all the books in our library are in excellent condition, and if any troubles occur, we “treat” them, just like Dr. Aibolit.

I am very happy when books are given to me, for example, I received as a gift from a person very respected by our family, Ksenia Pavlovna, who lives in St. year. And in our family there is a good tradition - often replenish books in the library in our favorite store "Capital".

This year I participated in a scientific and practical conference and made a report on the topic “The Birth of a Miracle”, and so, all the necessary and interesting information I learned from the encyclopedia of the publishing house "Avanta" "The World of Butterflies". Day by day I replenish my vocabulary and learn the meaning of new words from " explanatory dictionary Russian language”, it is very convenient when there is so much educational and developing literature in the home library.

And before going to bed, I always read funny detective stories by Katya Matyushkina, and I really like it! I am convinced that BOOKS are our best friends!

The book was published in the 19th century. The library began to be collected by my great-grandmother Lyuba, after whom my mother was named.

STUDENTS' WORKS OF THE 4th CLASS

Derbenev Maxim, 4 "A"

Here is my library, or rather, our home. There are two rows of books in a large bookcase. There are many of them, they are like flowers in a clearing - thick and thin, bright and modest, tall and small. But among this variety of books, you can determine where are children's and where are adults. There are a lot of books that parents read. Here and scientific literature, and fiction, and my mother's textbooks. They occupy the top two shelves.

Since my mother studied at a medical institute, there are many of her textbooks and medical reference books. I liked the Atlas of Human Anatomy. It is interesting to watch it, to find out how a person works, what the skeleton consists of, what organs a person has. Admittedly, sometimes I get a little scared.

It is good that we have dictionaries and reference books on the Russian language. They help me out in difficult times. My mother and I often turn to them for help.

Mom treats the books of her childhood with trepidation. It used to be difficult to buy a good book, and after school my mother ran to the library. M. Gorky, where she sat in the reading room for hours. To buy a good book, parents had to collect waste paper and exchange it for coupons. Books were sold on vouchers. So, as a girl, my mother, collecting paper, was able to buy books by A. Dumas, F. Cooper, J. London.

There are books of Russian classics in our library, which I have just begun to read and will continue to study at school. These are A. S. Pushkin, S. Yesenin, L. Tolstoy, M. Gorky, N. Ostrovsky, N. Nekrasov and others. These books were purchased by my grandparents. These books are not so bright and colorful, the sheets are yellow, the cover is shabby.
Dad loves history. He can read the whole book in a day without stopping. His favorite books are devoted to battles, battles, great commanders.

Grandfather was fond of chess all his life, he has a rank. A separate pile are his books dedicated to his favorite business: this is the "Chess Dictionary" and biographies of famous chess players.

My books are on the bottom shelf. This was done a long time ago, when I was little, so that I could borrow books myself. My first books are about the kolobok, the chicken Ryaba, the gray wolf, and the turnip. From childhood I was taught to be neat, not to tear sheets and not to draw on books. They are 8 years old, but you can give them, because they look very good. When little friends come to me, I am not ashamed to give them my books.

For the time being, I do not ask to buy books, since I have not read our entire library yet. I may not even know all the books that we have. But I can turn to my parents, and they will definitely say if there is a right author and work.
My parents give me encyclopedias to study. These are the Big Book of Questions and Answers, Knights, I Want to Know Everything. They help me in preparing reports and presentations.

I recently read a book that has been with us for 40 years. This is Kipling's Mowgli. There are no color pictures in it, the sheets have turned yellow, the letters have turned pale. It was read by my grandparents, aunt and mother, and now by me.
I have an unusual meeting every day after school and home bustle. I'm going on an unusual, fabulous journey. And my guide is a book, it helps to travel around the world. As soon as I open a book with any fairy tales, whether they are Russian or foreign, folk or author's fairy tales, a flying carpet picks me up and takes me to a distant magical land where animals and things can speak, where there are many amazing items that I so want to have now where exist nearby simple people and magicians, where Good always defeats Evil, to the country where Childhood lives!

Drozdov Pavel, 4 "A"
I have at home good library. From early childhood, my mother bought children's books by Marshak, Chukovsky, Mikhalkov and others. Now the library has encyclopedias, science fiction. We placed the books on the shelves and made a card file so that it would be easier to find a book that we wanted to read.
I grew older, and my library was filled with more serious books. There were books on different topics. I like fantasy books, so they are prominently displayed. There is a book in my library that was published in 1728.
There are about 2000 books in my library. My library is constantly updated with new books that help me in my studies and in life.

Rustamov Fedor, 4 "A"

As a family, we love to read books. Therefore, with early years We collect books by different writers. When I was little, I had books by Chukovsky, Marshak, Barto. I have read them several times. Now we have a rich library.
All books are on the shelves. On one shelf are books about animals, on the other are books about peers, and so on. There are books in the bookcase. I have distributed by writers - books by Prishvin, Bianki, Charushin. Dahl's and Ozhegov's dictionaries and encyclopedias on history, geography, an encyclopedia for children, about the animal world, the universe, etc. are completely separate. In total, I have 500 books in my library.
I love books about Sinbad the Sailor, Robinson Crusoe and others. I love the poet Pushkin, his lyrics, Marshak's poems. I want to say one thing: whoever reads a lot knows a lot!

Chibizov Danil, 4 "A"


The book is an invaluable source of knowledge. Thanks to the book, we learn a lot of new and interesting things.
My great-great-grandmother started collecting books in my family. The first book that appeared in our library is " Ugly duck". This book was published in 1956 and purchased in 1960. We have kept it, and it is the most valuable book in our home library.
There are 125 books in our home library! Of these: 65 books - fiction, 23 - collections of poems, 7 - reference books (4 medical and 3 culinary), 4 dictionaries, 6 autobiographical books, 1 Bible, 10 encyclopedias, 7 historical books, 1 book about painting.

I really like encyclopedias like literary genre. From encyclopedias we learn a lot of new things, we get knowledge that is useful in Everyday life. And the first book I read was called The Three Little Pigs.
Each family has clear restrictions: what can be read to children and what to adults. In my family, adults can read everything, and children can read everything except detective stories and fiction for adults. It is not specifically forbidden to read it, but they say that I will not understand anything. One day I wanted to read the book War and Peace. But when I found out that there were more than 1600 pages, my desire to read this book disappeared!

There are several books by Ekaterina Vilmont and Daria Dontsova in my home library. And most of all books by A. S. Pushkin (although he did not write specifically for children). I believe that a library (at least a small one) should be in every home!

Shishkin Alexander, 4 "A"

Hello! My name is Sasha. We have our own library at home. It is almost like a real city book, it contains about a thousand books. Don't believe? Come and count! Our books are available to everyone: both me and adults.

We have different books - fiction, educational, popular science, reference. Most of all in our library of fiction. There are books by both domestic and foreign authors. All books were published in the 20th century. Non-fiction books are devoted to mathematics, art, poetry and history. Also in our home library there are tutorials, textbooks on higher mathematics and linear algebra, Russian-English and English-Russian dictionaries.

Many of my books have been preserved since preschool. They are in good condition, not torn or scribbled. Some of them I often turn over. My very first book is Sergei Mikhalkov's poems Comrades Children. My mother's friend gave it to me when I was six months old. At first my mother read to me, and then I taught myself to read.

The home library continues to be created: we buy some books in the store, and some are given to us.
For me, the most expensive and favorite books are "Bad Advice" by G. Oster, "Deniska's Stories" by V. Dragunsky and Krylov's fables.

I don't read many books, and I didn't expect our home library to be so large and varied.

Buksha Daria, 4 "B"

Dear Guys! I will tell you about my home library. After doing research, I concluded that all our books can be divided into three groups:
1. books for children;
2. books for adults;
3. encyclopedias and reference books.
I'll start with the first group. It is the most interesting and the largest (it contains 277 books!). It is difficult to break it down into subgroups. The oldest book in my home library belongs to this group. My grandmother bought this book for my mother when she went to Kindergarten. The book was written in 1975 and published in 1976.

The second largest group of books are adult books. Most of it belongs to my mother. This group can be easily divided into two subgroups: cookbooks and law books. Of these books, the oldest, tattered one is The Art of Cooking. This book contains about 350 recipes and is about 15 years old. We often use it.

The third group of books is the smallest, it contains 15 books: 3 encyclopedias and 12 reference books. This group contains the newest books: the “oldest” was published in 2004, and the newest in 2007.
There are 292 books in my home library! I hope you enjoyed getting to know my home library.

Valuyskikh Alexander, 4 "B"

I don't understand people who don't like to read. After all, there are so many interesting and exciting things in books! Reading fairy tales, we learn to fantasize, reading historical books, we learn about what happened many years ago, etc.

I am proud of my home library - it contains more than 1,500 books (about 700 children's books and 800 adults). The most expensive book for our family is N. M. Karamzin's History of the Russian State. This book is 64 years old. It was passed down to my grandmother from my great-grandmother. Our parents' books are about 20 years old, and our grandparents' books are about 55 years old.

My mother and I have a tradition - every month we go to the bookstore and buy books. This is how my library grows.

Our family has many books about artists, Russian and foreign, and albums. There are also books about the history of Russia, starting from the ancient Slavs and ending with our days.

My first book, which I myself read at the age of 5, is the well-known Kolobok. Now my favorite books are the novels of Jules Verne, the stories of Vitaly Bianchi about nature and, of course, the fairy tales of Rudyard Kipling. I love to read and I think that a book is a man's best friend.

Glushinsky Sergey, 4 "B"

I want to talk about my library. It contains different books: fairy tales, novels, stories of different authors. There are books that I read only once, and there are books that I re-read many times, for example, "Deniska's stories" by Viktor Dragunsky and "Vovka Grushin and others" by Yuri Sotnik. In my library there are novels and fairy tales by R. Kipling, the most favorite work of this author is Mowgli.
Lately I've been into science fiction and fantasy, I've read Joan Rowling's Harry Potter books, Bullet Quantum by Alexei Bobl and Wish Hunter by Sergei Volnov from the Stalker series.
Books appear in my library in different ways. Almost all children's fairy tales were inherited from my parents. These books are 20-25 years older than me, they were published in 1974, 1979, 1981: “Ragged Ear” by E. Seton-Thompson, “Morning Begins with Birds” by V. Zaslavsky ... My parents and grandparents bought a lot of books for me . There are books that were given to me for holidays and birthdays.

Kuznetsov Daniil, 4 "B"

My library began to collect from my birth, it contains about 800 books, of which about 300 are children's books.
My favorite books are the works of J. Verne. For parents, the most important books in the library are on psychology. We have a tradition. We go to the bookstore every week and buy a few books to keep our library growing.

Lazkov Kirill, 4 "B"

My library began to form a very long time ago, when my mother was still quite small. Since then, my grandmother, and then my mother, bought a variety of books. Now all the books do not fit in three bookcases. Fairy tales, novels, detective stories, dictionaries, encyclopedias stand side by side on the shelves. Some are very old, shabby, but very interesting and necessary. Furnishings changed, furniture changed, and books took their new place in the house. Many of my books were given to me by my friends and relatives for the holidays.

Dictionaries and encyclopedias help me in writing reports, we need fiction for literature lessons and extracurricular reading. My favorite books are the “What is what” series, they contain a lot of interesting and necessary things. In these books you can find answers to many questions, many topics that interest me.

There are other books very dear to us, they are very old, some of them are dear as a memory. Old books are very interesting not only to read, but also just to look through, they have very unusual illustrations.
In our time, there are few books to read. Increasingly, people are looking for information on the Internet and other electronic media. But how can it compare with reading a book? When you take a book in your hands, time begins to pass quite imperceptibly and somehow becomes magically quiet around.

Morozova Sofia, 4 "B"

Being able to read is very good because when you read, you learn a lot of new things, your imagination develops, you become more literate and you begin to understand everything.
My home library is not very extensive. It contains about 900 books. We have both fiction and reference books and my sister's old textbooks in all subjects.
My two grandmothers have all the cupboards filled with books. Our family cannot take away all the books because there is not enough space in our apartment for so many books. If necessary, we simply come and choose the right books.
My favorite writer is Rudyard Kipling and my favorite poet is Alexander Pushkin.

Paramonik Anastasia, 4 "B"

Our family library includes about 600 books. In addition to the classics, it included detective stories, historical books, adventures, fairy tales and a lot of science fiction, as well as encyclopedias and dictionaries. Over time, the library grew and grew. All my relatives were people who read, they always followed the novelties of fiction. In our house, a lot of literary and educational magazines were always subscribed (since there were times when books were not available for free, and new works had to be read in a magazine version). We got some books from our grandmother, a lot of books were collected by my father. Now books are available, and we continue to replenish the shelves of our home library.

The oldest book in my library is "Timur and his team" by A. Gaidar. She is a 1968 release. And the newest is “Mefodiy Buslaev. Glass Guardian, written by Dmitry Yemets. It was released in 2009.

I like to read books very much. The first books that my mother read to me were “Gingerbread Man” and “Seven Kids”. And I myself learned to read at the age of 5, and the first book I read was Little Red Riding Hood.
All books are dear to our family, because each book has some thought, each book teaches something. But most of all, the book "Tales of the War" by N. Osinin, published in 1975, is dear to us. My mother read this book as a child. It describes how children had to live during the Great Patriotic War. She was very impressed and sunk into the soul.

I am growing myself, and my library is growing. Every book I read takes its place in my thoughts and soul. I honestly can't say which book is my favorite. Everything is so diverse, interesting and uninteresting that you want to live long life to learn and explore at least a tiny part of the world.
Books answer many of our questions, make us think and empathize with the characters. There are many books, they teach us the sciences, help us navigate our lives. I like to read books, it helps in my studies.

Pevnev Alexey, 4 "B"

I have a few books, about 300, of which 150 are for children, for children from 0 to 8 years old. My library is rarely updated. Mostly I take books from the library, I have read my home books many times, and I am not very interested in rereading them. But the books I bought recently, I read with joy: “At least I found some interesting book!”. In general, all books are interesting for me, both at home and in the library. You just need to understand what the book is about, what the author wanted to say. The last book, which they bought me, is called "Dinosaurs".

I have a lot of children's magazines at home. For all my 300 books, I did not write them down, because they are too thin compared to books. I have about 60 magazines, and 30 or 40 textbooks.

Skripnikov Nikita, 4 "B"

There are many different books in my home library. Most occupy encyclopedias for adults and children. There are also poems by Yesenin, Bunin, Pushkin and Marshak, as well as classical, children's literature and fantasy. In our library there is a book published in 1957. This is "Stories about Nature" by V. Bianchi, the book was presented to my grandmother when she was 7 years old.

Our family has different interests. The younger brother loves to read about animals. My dad's favorite book is The Twelve Chairs by Ilf and Petrov. Mom likes novels. When I was two years old, my mother read to me poems by A. Barto and Russian folk tales. I myself learned to read using N. S. Zhukova's primer. At the age of 5 I read the fairy tale "Masha and the Bear". Now I am fascinated by stories about the war and fantasy.
My home library is constantly updated. I choose books myself, or they give them to me. After all, it’s not in vain that they say: “A book is the best gift,” and I want to add that an interesting book is also a teacher. After all, from each book you read, you can draw something, learn something, draw some kind of conclusion for yourself.

Yuskov Alexander, 4 "B"

The library is a mysterious world of fairy tales, fantasy, history and amazing adventures. There are few books in my library, about 200. These are my first books - poems by Barto, fairy tales by Chukovsky, other Russian and foreign writers. I am fond of technology, so I have a lot of encyclopedias. On the shelves of my library are books by Nosov and Dragunsky, collected works by J. Verne and J. London, A. Belyaev and K. Doyle.
Among the books in my library, the oldest is the collection of V. Dahl "Proverbs of the Russian people", published in 1957.

Kashchenko Julia, 4 "B"

My library is very large. There are so many fairy tales and stories, true stories and fables, fantasy and poems, poems and stories in it ...
It seems to me that we have more books at home than in the school library. There is no room without a book. Dictionaries and tutorials occupied a whole rack. Even old, seemingly useless textbooks are neatly placed on the shelf. But there are so many riddles, proverbs and sayings in them, they are my faithful helpers!
Some of the books I got from my grandparents. For example, the Great Soviet Encyclopedia.
My favorite book is Harry Potter, it's fantastic. I have read all 7 parts and watched 6 films. I really enjoyed reading it before bed. I read chapter after chapter, fell asleep ...
That's my library, big and interesting!

Kolotilov Andrey, 4 "B"

There are many books in our home library. They stand in a tall cabinet with transparent doors. Books for adults are on the top shelves, and mine are lower so that I can easily take them out and read them.
And I love reading books! Because from books you learn a lot about the world, people, space. I started reading books at the age of 5. At first I read small books about cars, dinosaurs, children's poems. Then there are books about animals, but I think encyclopedias are the most interesting books. There is so much to learn from these books! There are various encyclopedias in our home library: about the universe, about business, about the countries of the world, about dinosaurs, about insects. These are wonderful, insightful books. And I also read K. Bulychev's fiction (“Alice's Journey”, “Guest from the Future”) with great pleasure.
The world of books is huge and fascinating, and no computer can replace reading books. I advise everyone - read more!

Lyalin Alexander, 4 "B"

The book is a teacher
The book is a teacher
The book is a close friend and friend,
The book is an adviser
The book is a scout
The book is an active fighter and fighter.
The book is an imperishable memory and eternity,
Satellite of the planet Earth, finally.
The book is not just beautiful furniture,
Not an application of oak cabinets.
The book is a magician who knows how to tell stories
Turn into a reality and into the basis of the foundations.

V. Bykov

Alexander Blok said that "a library of one hundred books is enough for an intelligent person ... But these one hundred books need to be selected all your life." My home library is my favorite books, there are about 100 of them. My library includes books with which I learned to read and loved to read as a child. These books are like my old, good friends. I am growing, my interests, hobbies are changing, and with them the books in my home library. Now I have dictionaries, scientific and educational literature, encyclopedias, books by Russian and foreign classical writers.

In the home library, it is advisable to have only those books that are re-read many times throughout life, as well as books by favorite writers. My favorite writer is Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. I love fairy tales, poems, Pushkin's prose. I believe that it is his works that bring up love for the book, arouse interest in reading. Pushkin's works are immortal. And they should be in the home library of every Russian person.

My home library has books in the Adventure Library, Adventure Library and Science Fiction series. These editions include the best works of fiction for children.
But special place in my home library there are books about dinosaurs, there are about 10 of them. These are various encyclopedias, and popular science literature, and science fiction. In my favorite books, dinosaurs do not look like vicious monsters, but living creatures, as they really were. The books have detailed images of prehistoric animals, and you can imagine their appearance. All these books are extremely interesting.

Every book I read has its rightful place in my home library, as well as in my thoughts and soul. Interesting book from the home library, you can give it to your friend or classmate to read, because a good book will help us all become kinder and smarter.

Avdeev Daniil, 4 "G"

My library

There are 625 books in our home library. Parents have the most books. My sister and I are about the same size. But we share them among ourselves. They are considered common, they just stand in different rooms. We read them one by one or together, aloud with mom. I really like it when we are on the train, reading books aloud to the sound of wheels. Last summer we returned from Sochi by train. In the course of a few days' journey we read aloud Inkheart and Inkblood by Cornelia Funke.

I love adventure and fantasy books. We have many of them. Grandmother, mother or we buy them together. My grandmother gave me and my sister 7 volumes of Harry Potter by Joan Rowling. We have several volumes of Kir Bulychev. Among all his heroes, I like the restless Pashka Geraskin the most. There are adventure books that my mother read at school, and now I read them. A series of these books is called the “Adventure Library” (J. Swift, Jules Verne, Mark Twain, F. Cooper and others).

We carefully store the books that our parents read to us in childhood. Later, having learned to read, I read some of them on my own: the tales of the Finnish writer Tove Janson about the Moomin trolls, the tales of Alexander Volkov.
When counting books, it turned out that most of all we have popular science books, encyclopedias and reference books. My mother is in history, as she works as a history teacher. My sister has on the history of costume and albums with reproductions of artists from different eras, since she studies at an art school. And I have books about dinosaurs, about the history of technology, about discoveries, probably because I'm a boy. Many popular science books about insects, animals and birds. And now I am collecting a series of magazines "Insects" of the publishing house "DeAGOSTINI". Each magazine comes with an insect sealed in a special solution.

The average person reads at a speed of 2 words per second. Suppose he does nothing, but only reads 12 hours a day. In a year he will be able to read about 3 million words, or 400 books of 270 pages each. Within 50 years he will be able to read about 20,000 books. But it is unlikely that there is such a book-eater who spends 12 hours a day behind a book. If you read even for 6 hours a day, then in a lifetime you can master about 10 thousand books. And in the world since the invention of printing, more than 50 million titles of books, brochures, magazines, articles have been published. It is difficult to imagine such a number. No wonder they say: "mountains of books" or "sea of ​​books." The main thing is to be able to find those that you really need from these millions of books.

There are just over 200 books in my home library. One third of these books is fiction. These are books for extracurricular reading in elementary school, books from the supplement to the magazine " Primary School"Book, hello!" (edited by N. N. Svetlovskaya, publishing house "Enlightenment"). These books were given to me by my grandparents. There are books from the "Schoolchild Reader" series, these are books of my cousin who graduated from high school two years ago. There are works that are studied in high school. I got these books from my mom. I have not read them yet, I still have to do this in the future.

The fourth part of my home library is made up of dictionaries, reference books, and encyclopedias. Most of these books are from the Rosmen publishing house. It is a pity that the encyclopedias are mostly foreign authors, translated from English, German, Spanish.

Among my books there are also non-fiction books. This is additional material in subjects, most often in history, natural history, and mathematics. There are very few of them: about a dozen. Most often I use the "Forest Newspaper" by V. Bianchi, the "Atlas-Identifier" by Pleshakov, the book "The World of Numbers" by Depman.

Of course, like all children, they bought me small books to read with beautiful illustrations. These are Russian folk tales, Chukovsky's tales, Marshak's poems. There are three dozen of them. All are in good condition. My favorite book at preschool age was "Tales and Pictures" by V. Suteev. She is my favorite even now. I often just flip through it. A little over a dozen books that I bought at preschool age were first read aloud, and then I reread them myself. These are books by E. Uspensky, poems by Zakhoder, Tokmakova, Barto, collections of fairy tales.

In my home library there are books that are constantly used by all family members. These are books on cooking, sewing, knitting, useful household tips. There are books on healthy living. Grandmother uses them and gives us advice.

All books in our family library are published in the 20th and 21st centuries. The oldest book belonged to my great-grandmother. It is called "Sewing a light women's dress", published in Moscow by the Rosgizmestprom publishing house in 1951.

per century modern technologies when there are computers and the Internet, and home mini-libraries like mine should still be in every home, or rather, they probably are. After all, they develop the desire and ability to “dig through books” to find missing information, answers to questions posed by teachers, elders, and then by life itself.

My cousin is growing up, to whom I will give baby books. The books that I will probably keep for myself are the books by V. Krapivin, “The Golden Cloud Spent the Night” by A. Pristavkin, “Lord of the Flies” by Golding. I haven’t read these books yet, but my grandmother said that they teach responsibility for one’s actions, honesty in communication, which I wish for myself and wish for my children.
Books, even the most ridiculous books, are textbooks. They can learn to live. If, of course, there is a desire.

Voytov Stepan, 4 "D"

There are over 100 books in my library. My library is young, she is 10 years old. It was created after we moved to Novosibirsk. There are very few books by my grandparents.
Most of all in my children's library and educational literature. It contains my textbooks, starting from the first grade, and my sister's textbooks.
I really like the series of books "I know the world." I especially love the book The History of Things. It tells about such things familiar to all of us as matches, a fountain pen, an eraser ...
I have several atlases in my library: geographical, atlas of the world, atlas of nature, atlas of the wonders of the world, atlas of animals. They are published by modern domestic publishing houses. From fiction there are books on the program of school and extracurricular reading.
The oldest book is a collection of poems by N. A. Nekrasov (publishing house "Fiction", 1971). This book came into my library from my grandfather. The newest book in my library is The Adventures of Chipollino (2007, Samovar publishing house).
My library still continues to be created as books are needed.

There are 218 books in our library. Most of the library is made up of fiction, works of writers of past years. There are foreign and domestic writers and poets.
We have a lot of books from my preschool days. They are in good condition. I got a lot of children's books from my parents and cousin. There is an encyclopedia “What is it? Who it?" Publishing house "Enlightenment", 1968. Much of it is outdated, but some of the articles are very interesting and help in your studies.
One of the old ones is The Book of Tasty and Healthy Food, 1964. I read books from my home library.

Nadelyaeva Veronika, 4 "D"

Hello to everyone who reads my report about my library. Of course, it does not contain all the books that I need in my studies, but I take most of the books from it. My library was created in the usual way. My grandmothers and grandfathers bought books for themselves, which have accumulated a lot, and now they are inherited.

There are about 370 books in the family library. A little, but also a lot. Most of the books are by domestic authors of past centuries. There are also books on psychology (my mother studied them), detective stories and fantasy (my father reads them).

Many books have been preserved from my childhood. Only they are decorated by me, and some pages are torn out. But I'm still interested in browsing through them. Also in our library there are homemade books that I made myself, and books made by my dad when he was in 8th grade.

A special pride of our library is the oldest book published in the 19th century. These are Nadson's poems - a thick brown book with a thick cover. Its curved leaves keep the dust of centuries, they were leafed through by my great-grandfather and great-grandmother.

However, the most interesting copy in the family library is a technical novelty - electronic book. Not so long ago, she appeared in our family and, as a rule, is admired by the guests. A thin black-and-white folder no larger than a school notebook can hold about half of our school library. Dad believes that the time is not far off when students will go to school not with heavy satchels and bags, but with such a thin book in their pocket.

Smirnov Alexey, 4 "D"

There are 237 books in my home library. Most reference publications (102 books). 60 books - educational publications, and fiction 75 books. There are fewer foreign authors (93 books) than domestic authors (144 books). There are only 30 books of the 20th century.

Of the educational publications there are dictionaries in Russian and English. Often we use reference books on painting, history, cooking, medicine, various encyclopedias.

I have some preschool books. It was interesting for me to look through them again. I don't remember the very first book I read, but I'm sure it survived because I don't throw away my books.

My library was created like this: I bought books with my parents, or they gave them to me. I have read the part of my library that belongs to me personally. The oldest book in it is 1961, it is called "We are flying into space." This was my dad's favorite book as a child. And there is a book that is dear to my grandmother - "The Little Prince".

The books in my library look like new even though I use them often.

Shadrin Ivan, 4 "D"

There are about 600 books in our library. Most of all we have art and reference publications. There is a lot of foreign literature: A. Dumas, G. Mann, Shakespeare, Molière. Many Russian writers and poets: the complete works of Pushkin, Gogol, Nekrasov, Simonov, Lermontov. There are both classic and modern literature. Lots of books for middle and high school age. The library has collections of poems by Yevtushenko, Drunina, Isakovsky, Tvardovsky, Stuart, etc.

Reference literature is mainly medical, my mother studied at the institute from these books. There are editions of the Academy of Sciences (Montaigne, Benois, Ferdowsi, Straparola), literature on the history of art and archeology.
The oldest publication in the library is Plutarch's Selected Biographies, the book was published in 1941. Books from the preschool period are very well preserved.

Our library was created gradually, over the years. My grandmother collected books from high school. She was fond of art history, archeology, which influenced the overall content of the library.

Shchelkunov Ilya, 4 "D"

In my library there are reference publications - "Soviet Encyclopedic Dictionary", "Brief Encyclopedia of Household", a children's edition "What? What for? Why?".

Our family heirloom is an old encyclopedic dictionary, over 50 years old. It is in good condition, and we got it from our great-grandmother. We even have those books that my grandparents read. These books are very old, with yellowed pages. Mom takes great care of them.

A separate shelf is occupied by children's books. My favorites are poems by A. Barto, "The Adventures of Alice" by K. Bulychev, "Dreamers" by N. Nosov, "Deniska's Stories" by V. Dragunsky. The oldest children's book is Zhakoni's Adventures by Yuri Magalif, published in 1985.

The main function that it performs home library is the organization of your book collection in such a way that it is easier to find necessary book and reading became fun, carefree and comfortable. In this article, you will find some tips for organizing your home library.

A place in the house for a home library

The second, no less attractive option is home library in the living room. Such a solution will be especially interesting for those who do not have a free room for a home office.

And, finally, a compact version of the home library is its arrangement in any of the rooms. It could be in your bedroom with a reading area, a bookcase in the corner of the kitchen, or a home library in the children's room. This is a very profitable solution for small apartments or in the absence of a living room. You can also benefit from the space under the stairs by installing a built-in bookcase there.

The interior of the cabinet-library

In your home office, the library can take up one, two, or even three walls. Floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves allow you to store as many books as you need. The presence of a home library in the office speaks of the refined taste and intellectual development of its owner.

The style of interior design with a library can be very diverse, from colonial to ultra-modern. Home libraries with antique furniture look rich and elegant - a massive oak desk, leather armchairs and chairs with wooden armrests, a leather-covered seating area, a coffee table and high-to-ceiling cabinets for a home library.

If you are a fan of a more modern style, decorate your home library design in your office with comfortable sofas, high-tech style and other stylish pieces of furniture and accessories.

The interior of the library-living room

The living room is one of the most suitable places for arranging a comfortable and functional library. Its main element will be bookshelves, as well as a place for reading and relaxing. When organizing a home library in the living room, you can let your imagination run wild, as this is the place in the house where all interior and design ideas are easily embodied.

Shelves for books can be built-in, hinged or floor. If you have antiques or books in your collection that you simply would like to keep, use glazed or home library cabinets. If the shelves are up to the ceiling, you will definitely need. Choose it so that it matches the style of the interior and furniture of your home library.

Bookshelves can be decorated with personal items - framed photographs, souvenirs,. They can beautifully dilute the rows of books, and if the collection expands, you will have room for new copies.

And you can decorate the interior design of the living room with a library with the help of paintings, decorative flowerpots with flowers, curtains, and other decor items.

Tall vases and flowerpots on the floor of the living room, as well as original rugs near the sofa or fireplace will look especially beautiful.

When choosing lighting, give preference to lamps that will allow you to see even the smallest print of readable text. The reading lamp should be placed over the shoulder so that the light does not shine directly into the eyes. The main lighting of the home library should not be too bright, this negatively affects the preservation of books. An excellent lighting option for comfortable reading is floor lamps on a convenient ergonomic pantograph that can be rotated in any direction.

Children's home library

A child who loves to read certainly has a lot of books in his room, and to keep them in order, equip him with a children's home library. The interior of the children's room can be complemented with original modern bookshelves or cabinets. Even if your child isn't interested in books, an inviting reading space in their room can make all the difference.

children preschool age ideal shelves that provide for the placement of books cover to face. They are equipped with a special bar that holds the book. The child can always easily find the book he needs by the picture on the cover.

Children's bookshelves in the form of letters of the alphabet or shelves-houses look original.

Modular options are interesting, in which there are bookshelves combined with a bed.

Children's bookshelves should be adapted to the height of the child. Older children can be offered hanging bookshelves above their desk or bed.

One of the options for placing bookshelves are children's with recesses for shelves, as well as built-in bookshelves in a niche or under a windowsill. This is a convenient solution both for a small space in a children's room, which, regardless of size, should be as functional and comfortable as possible for a child, and for a spacious children's room that allows you to use various options furnishings.

Hi all! Most recently, I wrote about how beautiful it is. Today I want to continue this topic and talk about home libraries and bookcases. The library in a classic interior looks luxurious and harmonious. However, nowadays the home library in modern interior is becoming increasingly rare. While the Internet and tablets have replaced paper editions for many, we are less likely to buy paper books, and put away old book collections box by box.

More air!

Don't crowd the shelves with books too tightly. The free space left between stacks of books and decor items will make the interior visually more airy and spacious. A half-empty rack looks very stylish, on which here and there stands a beautiful book, a vase or a figurine.
