Why adapted literature

Real books. A reachable way in.

Learning material can be useful and still feel like literature.

01

Real Ukrainian voices

Meet Ukrainian writers, stories, culture, and regional identities through literature.

02

Graded with care

Each text is shaped for a level while keeping the story’s meaning and character in view.

03

A book you can finish

Choose a format and a level that make an ambitious reading habit feel possible.

How we adapt

Keep the story. Open the door.

Adaptation is a series of careful editorial decisions — not a rewrite that removes what makes a work Ukrainian.
