At Pottermore, we are passionate about storytelling and committed to enabling families and children to access the Harry Potter books and other stories from the Wizarding World™. For the ten years we’ve been in operation, we’ve been expanding both the number of languages that our eBooks and digital audiobooks are available in, and the relationships with online bookshops and libraries that allow us to create easy access to them for readers and listeners around the world. These free eBooks have been selected from our extensive range of hi-lo books and have been designed to be accessible to EAL readers . The titles were selected especially with refugee children in mind, featuring positive stories and non-fiction with a wide appeal that avoids potentially triggering subject matter. These books are expertly levelled and use simple short sentences and controlled language — ideal for language learning. We have used a native Ukrainian translator who is experienced in producing high-quality dual language transcripts, ensuring children have the best possible experience when reading these texts. Previously, we did not publish digital publications in Ukrainian, so we had some difficulties. However, thanks to the ingenuity of our teams, as well as the kindness and support of the Ukrainian publishing house A-BA-BA-HA-LA-MA-HA, we managed to make these stories free for Ukrainian-speaking users,” Pottermore said.The ODILO app lets you have easy to access multimedia content (eBooks, audiobooks, magazines, videos, podcasts, courses and more formats) on your smartphone and tablet. Pottermore захоплюємося цікавими історіями та прагнемо надати усім бажаючим доступ до книг про Гаррі Поттера, а також до інших книг з Wizarding WorldTM. За десять років роботи ми не тільки збільшили кількість мов, на яких доступні наші електронні та аудіокниги, але й налагодили відносини з книжковими онлайн-магазинами та бібліотеками, завдяки яким ми можемо забезпечити зручний доступ до сервісу для читачів і слухачів у всьому світі.

Print these out as large as you can or display them electronically on an interactive whiteboard, so children can see and compare the different scripts used. Making Ukrainian e-books available for free isn’t the only action the Wizarding World has taken to show support for Ukraine amid the conflict. In April, Harry Potter books were removed from two of Russia’s largest e-book librariesand a number of alumni put their names to fundraisers and charity appeals.
