Series of Unfortunate Events
I still have to read childrens' books in Russian. I am reading Harry Potter but on amazon all the native Russians complain that the traslation is terrible.
Does anyone know if the Unfortunate Events series has a good translation?
I wish I could read "real" books in Russian...I tried once and was lost after 3 pages.

I am sure you can read real books in Russian. You just need a good dictionary. Take a look at this book. It's translated from French and easy to read. You might like it. "Malevil" by Robert Merle.
