{"product_id":"russian-optimism-ben-rosenfeld-9780990855200","title":"Russian Optimism: Dark Nursery Rhymes To Cheer You Right Up","description":"\u003cp\u003eRussian Optimism: Dark Nursery Rhymes To Cheer You Right Up is an illustrated coffee table book containing thirty of Russia's most horrifically hysterical nursery rhymes translated for an English speaking audience. Each rhyme is 2-4 lines, with an innocent title and a horrible ending. Each rhyme is accompanied by a brightly colored yet twisted illustration of the scenario described to add humor. Each two-page layout has the illustration on one side, and the title of the rhyme, the English text, the Russian text and the Russian transliteration (using English letters) on the other. For example, The Woods: \"A little boy found a machine gun. Nothing lives in the woods anymore.\" The rhymes are grouped in seven ironically titled chapters: Moral Messages, Parenting Pointers, Classic Cooking, Aquatic Adventures, Close Calls, Cheery Children and Explosive Endings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ben Rosenfeld\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0990855201\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780990855200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bigbencomedy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 68\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 8.50w x 0.31d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/30\/2015","brand":"Ben Rosenfeld","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46216972632319,"sku":"9780990855200","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7bd2267c-1d01-4e5a-8b49-52efb00520f2.jpg?v=1728513900","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/russian-optimism-ben-rosenfeld-9780990855200","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
