This article contains a MovaReader adaptation of three children’s stories by Borys Hrinchenko, Olesia (Олеся, 1890), Hrytsko (Грицько, 1890) and Watermelons (Кавуни, 1891), retold in simple modern Ukrainian. An orphan girl leads Tatar raiders away from her village, a boy and his poor neighbour quarrel over cherries by a river, and two friends steal watermelons from a strict old watchman. Level A2 suits readers who know the basics: sentences of about 10 words, past-tense narration and lively dialogue. You will learn words for village life, the garden and the field, fear and courage, verb aspect, the vocative and the dative in impersonal phrases.
