Description
The hero of the Johnny Vorobyov stories is always at the center of all sorts of interesting matters—whether it’s tracking down a mysterious crocodile or staging a school play. But the main thing, perhaps, isn’t the adventures, but the friends Johnny has in abundance—from little kids in kindergarten to the school principal.
Contents:
◆ 1. The Flight of the Horned Vikings (1969)
Summer for Johnny and his friends turned out badly—almost all the boys from their group scattered in every direction. But Tolyka Samokhin’s team stayed in the city, in full force. Even then, you can put the enemy to flight if you use military ingenuity, a dab of paint, and the mischievous goat of Grandma Natasha.
