reviews that fans have made. And he seemed to be very good writer, because many young people really loved his creations and he also was most famous children’s story writer.

Lamb to the Slaughter by Roald Dahl (1916-1990) The room was warm and clean, the curtains drawn, the two table lamps alight - hers and the one by the empty chair opposite. On the sideboard behind her, two tall glasses, soda water, whiskey. Fresh ice cubes in the Thermos bucket. Mary Maloney was waiting for her husband to come him (correction: home) from work. Now and again she would glance up at the clock, but without anxiety, merely to please herself with the thought that each minute gone by made it nearer the time when he would come. There was a slow smiling air about her, and about everything she did. The drop of a head as she bent over her sewing was curiously tranquil. Her skin - for this was her sixth month with child - had acquired a wonderful translucent quality, the mouth was soft, and the eyes, with their new placid look, seemed larger darker than before. When the clock said ten minutes to five, she began to listen, and a...

HTOS.02.244 MAAILMA LASTEKIRJANDUSE EKSAMI KORDAMISKÜSIMUSED 1. Maailm vanimast eeposest. Gilgameš - kangelane oli Sumeri Uruki linna valitseja 3. aastatuhandel eKr. Koos oma parima sõbra, metsinimese Enkiduga elas Gilgameš läbi rea seiklusi. Koos võitsid nad koletise Humbaba ja pärast seda, kui Gilgameš oli tagasi lükanud jumalanna Ištari abieluettepaneku, tapsid taevase sõnni. Kui Endiku suri, asus Gilgameš otsima igavest elu. Jõudnud turvaliselt üle Surmavete, kohtas ta surematut meest Utnapištimit , kes jutustas Gilgamešile, kuidas tema ja ta perekond elasid üle suure veeuputuse. Utnapištim ütles, et igavese nooruse taim kasvab merepõhjas. Gilgameš leidis selle, kuid kui ta end ühel põllul pesi, sõi madu tema väärtusliku taime ära ning ta pidi tühjade kätega Urukisse tagasi minema. Gilgameši arvastuseotsing oli olnud asjata.Gilgameš otsib elu mõtet. Teda piinab küsimus, mis jääb inimesest järele pärast tema surma. Pöörd...
