Why do children love fairy tales so much? Maybe because children need, above all, for life to include something mysterious, wonderful, and extraordinary—something that can be found only in fairy tales. Fairy tales broaden children’s horizons; they help them understand that besides the real world there is also a magical world of exciting adventures. Open this amazing book and, together with the heroes, plunge into the Волшебный мир (Magic World), full of incredible transformations and magic. Furry, prickly, winged, and toothy inhabitants of the Russian forest live in funny and instructive fairy tales written by classics of children’s literature such as E. Пермяк, A.N. Tolstoy, И. Котовская, М. Пришвин, В.И. Даль, and К. Ушинский.
