Game on Boys 2: Minecraft Madness: A hilarious action adventure for children 9-12 with cartoons. (Game on Boys Series)
Kate Cullen - 2015
Rino James is the thinking boy’s Greg Heffley (aka wimpy kid). He’s fanatical with all things computer. He’s mad about Minecraft, he’s crazy over Xbox, and he’s obsessed with the PlayStation. There’s only one thing in this whole world that could make his life better (apart from sending his annoying sister back to the baby making farm), and it has nothing to do with computer games. As usual, his parents do their best to prevent it from happening. According to Rino, their idea of fun, doesn't quite match his idea of fun. In fact, he believes his Mom has a built in Siri message centre to alert her when he is having a good time, so she can detonate disaster for him. In the second of the series, what starts off as an awesome week with plenty of gaming promise, soon turns sour when a new teacher, obsessed with running, replaces Mr Higginbottom, and an All-night Gaming Marathon at Matthew’s, is replaced with a family trip that makes the Wimpy kids ‘long haul’ look like a limo ride to Disneyland. What happens at the end is nothing short of devastating and miraculous all in one. The main question is ‘does Rino live to tell the tale?’ Girls will love this book just as much as boys, despite its name. Be prepared for lots of side splitting laughter, but don’t be surprised if you shed the odd tear as well. Don’t forget, the first in the series, ‘Game on Boys: The PlayStation Playoffs’ is still free with 93%- 5 star reviews. Get it here http://amzn.com/B00K3W0KNM

Hovhannes Tumanyan's Fairy Tales (Language: Armenian)
Հովհաննես Թումանյան - 1930
His work was mostly written in tragic, sometimes humorous form, as in this title, often centering on the harsh lives of villagers in the Lori region. Tumanyan's inspiration for his writing came considerably from his parents. He was born in the village of Dsegh in the Province of Lori, Armenia. With his father was an offspring of an Armenian princely family of Tumanian (branch of the Mamikonians) and the village's priest and his mother an avid storyteller with a particular interest in fables, Tumanyan had incorporated many of the themes from his mother's stories and his father's preachings into his writings. Tumanyan is usually regarded in Armenian circles as "All-Armenian poet." He earned this title when the Catholicos of Armenia had ordered that Armenian refugees from the west not enter certain areas of his church and house, since he is considered to be "The Catholicos of all Armenians." Tumanyan in response decried that decision claiming that the refugees could seek relief in the Catholicos' quarters under order of "The Poet of all Armenians."
