"The Grandfathers of Russia" tells about different peoples living in our country and their unique New Year magicians who delight children by granting wishes.
Due to the variety of time zones, New Year can be celebrated in Russia 9 times. The first to mark it is Kamchatka Krai and Chukotka, and the last is Kaliningrad.
Readers will travel across Russia together with the characters, learn about traditions and rituals of the peoples, and meet local Grandfathers—such as Kysh Babay in Tatarstan, Pakkayne in Karelia, Suok Taadak in Altai, and Chyshhaan in Yakutia.
With this book you can:
• visit the residences of different Grandfathers;
• find out where Snegurochka was born;
• meet friends of Tatar Kysh Babay;
• study New Year rituals of the Tuvans;
• explore the lands of the ancient Saami.
Set off on a festive journey through Russia, solve interesting puzzles, and welcome New Year with new characters!
