Hello there!
I recently picked up "The Area of Cardboard Clocks" by Leonid Yakhnin from the library with my daughter, and we've been thoroughly enjoying it together.

I have to admit, it's always a bit of a gamble when it comes to figuring out if a book will hook a kid. This one's recommended for 4-8 year olds, but my older kids just weren't interested in the story. Luckily, my daughter loved it, and it was great to see how it all played out for Vafelka...

It's an 'Mahaon' edition from 2011, and you can now buy it on Ozon or even in English for a pretty affordable price - a great value for money, if you ask me.
The book's cover is sturdy, it's heavy, and the pages are nicely thick with lots of illustrations inside - a great build quality that makes it feel like a high-quality book.

The story's pretty simple, but that's actually a good thing for this age group - it's easy to follow and understand, making it perfect for kids who are just starting to get into reading.
Master Tulia cut out houses, city clocks, and even stitched little people out of cardboard pieces - it's amazing to see the creativity that goes into something like this.
But Tulia was too lazy to cut the strings that connect the people's arms and legs, which later affected the story. Krag realized you could pull these strings and make the people do what he wanted - it's a clever little twist that adds some excitement to the story.

I personally liked Vafelka and her dog more - they're just so cute and endearing, and my daughter loved them too.

My child gets really emotional when she's interested in a book - she'll excitedly retell what she's read and what she liked. After reading 'The Area of Cardboard Clocks', she said she liked it overall, but mentioned Tulia as her least favorite - I guess she just didn't find Tulia's laziness very relatable.

The main plot's about the villain Krag, but the book's not scary at all - it's actually a pretty gentle story that's perfect for kids who are just starting to get into reading.
It's a quick and easy read, with lots of pictures - my daughter loved looking at all the illustrations and trying to guess what was happening next.
Subjectively, I think it's best suited for kids under 3-4 years old, but every child is different, so I wouldn't say anything bad about the book - it's a great choice for kids who are just starting to get into reading.
Thanks for reading!
