Ein außergewöhnlicher Russe

Es ist wenig bekannt über das russische Unikat, das nach dem Nachnamen seines Konstrukteurs als Babich in die Automobilgeschichte einging.

Ein zeitgenössisches Foto aus den 1950er Jahren zeigt den schlanken Mann Arkadij Dmitrievich Babich im mittleren Alter ohne Bart in Anzug und Krawatte, wohnhaft in der damals unter dem Namen Leningrad bekannten Metropole.

Sein erstes, eigens von ihm entworfene und aufgebaute Auto soll von einem V2-Zylinder-Motorradmotor angetrieben worden sein. Des Weiteren war er bei der Entwicklung des Rohrrahmens für den russischen Straßenrennwagen namens KVN 2500 - auch die Bezeichnung KVN 20 S findet sich - dabei. Nach dieser Schaffensphase entschloss sich Arkadij Dmitrievich Babich dazu, einen eigenen Wagen von Grund auf zu realisieren und zwar ein riesengroßes Cabriolet. Über die Bauzeit von drei Jahren entstand sein Personenwagen und wurde im Jahr 1956 fertig. Als Antriebsquelle diente ihm ein 6-Zylindermotor mit 3,5 Litern Hubraum und 90 PS Leistung aus der Fertigung des GAZ-Werkes, in der westlichen Sprache auch unter dem Namen `Gorkier Automobilwerk` geläufig.

Sein privat aufgebautes Cabriolet wies extrem starke Anleihen am US-amerikanischen Automobilbau auf. Der Geschichte nach war etwas Derartiges in der damaligen UdSSR eigentlich verpönt. Dem Konstrukteur war es aber dennoch möglich, sein außergewöhnliches Auto zum Straßenverkehr zuzulassen, wie historische Fotos zeigen.

Une soviétique extraordinaire

On ne sait que peu de choses sur cette unique et originale voiture russe, qui est entrée dans l'histoire de l'automobile sous le nom de famille de son concepteur, la Babich.

Une photo datant des années 1950 montre son concepteur, Akardij Dmitirevich Babich, mince et d'âge moyen, rasé de près et vêtu d'un costume-cravate. À l'époque, il vivait à Leningrad, nom connu sous le régime soviétique, aujourd’hui St Petersbourg.

Sa toute première voiture spécialement conçue et construite par lui aurait été propulsée par un moteur de moto V-2. Nous savons qu’il a participé aussi au développement du cadre tubulaire d’une voiture de course russe, connu sous le nom de KVN 2500 - ou également connu sous le nom de KVN 20S. Après cette phase créative, Akardij Dmitirevich Babich décide de concevoir son propre véhicule, un grand cabriolet. La période de construction s’étale sur trois ans et la voiture est achevée en 1956. Elle était équipée d’un moteur six cylindres d'une cylindrée de 3,5 litres et une puissance de 90 cv de chez 'GAZ' ou, en langue occidentale, 'Gorkier Automobilwerk' .

Visiblement, son cabriolet a été fortement inspiré par l'industrie automobile américaine. Ce qui, historiquement, était généralement très mal vu dans l'ex-URSS. Cependant, le designer fut autorisé à utiliser son extraordinaire voiture sur la voie publique, comme le prouvent les photos historiques retrouvées.

Came for the illustrator but left due to the author
Format: Hardcover
Came for the illustrator but left due to the author. The language in this book is very inappropriate for a children’s book. The older brother blurts out nonsense including randomly referring to dying. This was a big let down for us coming for Miranda’s fun illustrations.

Stick Dog Rocks - From A Grateful Mother
My son has struggled with learning to read and therefore is a very reluctant reader. Stick Dog was the first book he read all on his own, of his own accord and motivation. He was so proud to be able to do it, and I loved hearing him giggle as he read about the silly plans the dogs concocted. Tom Watson has a perfect formula for the 7-10 year-old child - the writing is accessible, yet still smart, and the humor is silly, but not over-the-top, and it's not loaded with inappropriate language (thank you!). When the second book in the series came out, my son was so excited he carried it everywhere and literally slept with the book. I've since recommended it to other mothers for their reluctant readers, and the response has been the same - it's the first book that many of them have taken the initiative to read on their own (girls and boys), and they also love it. I've also recommended it to several bookstores and schools as a great read for kids in this age group. Please, please, please, write more Stick Dog books - and soon!

A Sure Favorite
What's not to like about Stick Dog. This book is in full color and has a bonus chapter. I wish all of the Stick Dog and Stick Cat books were in full color. As with all of the books, the pages are lined giving the appearance of notebook paper. The lines really help a kiddo with dyslexia follow along better.

Good, Silly, Doggy, Reading Fun!
Format: Hardcover
I've read all three of the Stick Dog books to my class and they've loved every one! Someone always has them at their desk now. This is a fun, easy to read story that's 140+ pages of some stray dogs plotting to get some hamburgers. The font is huge and the story is littered with illustrations so each page has at most four paragraphs, so not very daunting if you have a reluctant reader. The author's tone makes it easily accessible too. He talks to kids at their level, never down to them, and even manages to sneak in some higher level vocabulary in there at times! This book and its sequels could be the ones to turn any reluctant readers in your life into book hounds!

A Book About Friendship, Gumption and Happiness
Format: Hardcover
This book is an enthusiastic and inspired combination of stick drawings, challenging vocabulary, cheerful wordplay and shaggy dog, (literally), adventures. There is a tremendous sense of happy camaraderie among the doggy characters. The drawing is intentionally amateurish; the dogs are stick figures. Except there's more going on here than you might imagine, and the author manages to fit a considerable amount of expression and personality into the drawings. You get a sort of "less is more" vibe, and the young reader is drawn into paying more attention to the writing. That said, the simple drawings clearly illustrate what's being related in the text and so end up being amusing and helpful. Let's hear it for stick drawings. Think Picasso, but with more tails. The vocabulary is at a high but fair level - one dog doesn't speak to another, he "addresses" him. That's not outlandish, but it represents a real step up in the level of sophistication of the writing. The overall effect is that this is a book that encourages a young reader, ever so gently, to step up his or her game in terms of reading confidence and ability. Pretty nice for a stick figure dog story. There is word play and a great deal of clever conversation. But, there's also just a lot of silly, engaging dog stuff. The dogs tease each other, compliment each other, and play with each other. They have adventures, meet other animals, and explore things. There are set pieces, but a lot of the action just involves Stick Dog's bemused management of this gang of knuckleheads. The upshot is that the book is funny, calm and welcoming. It is sneaky in that it has charms that are not immediately evident, but that become clear as you read it. It's sort of like a stray dog that works its way into your home, (like Stick Dog himself). How cool is that.
