The book "Tales About Clever Girls" includes three works by E. Uspensky. "Fur Boarding School" and "Stone-Eater from the Klyazma Station" tell how smart, brave, independent elementary school girls help amazing beings—unknown where they come from. Children of other civilizations, with extraordinary abilities, attract unhealthy interest from both military and civilian officials. The duty of real Earth girls is to protect their charges. The third novella, "The Wizard Bahram", is also about another clever girl who saves a powerful but silly wizard from great trouble. For younger school age.
