The Secret at the Bottom of the Well

The book “The Secret at the Bottom of the Well” is different from other works by the wonderful children’s writer Nikolai Nosov. In it, he tells about his childhood and the events he had to experience. According to the author, the story’s hero is—himself. “That can be said, but it will be true only in part. When I was writing, I wanted readers to see not only me in my hero, but also themselves.”

Memories of what he lived through turned into an engaging and educational story.
