A ninth-grader, Stesha, inherits an old book of Russian fairy tales from her great-grandmother and is disappointed: after all, she’s no longer a child.
But curiosity gets the better of her—Stesha opens the book, reads “Ryaba the Hen,” and suddenly finds herself right inside the fairy tale: into the cottage with an old man, an old woman, and even Ryaba the Hen herself. Stesha runs a blog and quickly realizes that this book could become a real find—if she learns how to take her camera with her into the storybook world.
