Asino Summer

Summer is the most magical time of the year: it seems that every day promises wonders and it is easier than ever to get into some kind of adventure. But Praskovya Shustova, or just Asya, couldn't even imagine what magical... adventures and wonders awaited her in a completely ordinary summer camp! It’s no joke - as soon as she arrived, she made friends with gnomes and fairies, learned to fly, visited an underground palace and an underwater kingdom… There turns out to be so much magic around that it takes your breath away! The main thing is that the camp leader Lena doesn’t suspect anything, and that the other kids don’t find out about Asya's unusual friends - they won’t believe it! Also, life flows in the camp: boys tease and prank each other, girls get ready for a beauty contest, everyone plays pioneerball together, gather around the campfire and disco, and of course, share scary stories in the evenings. There are joys and disappointments, real friendships are born, and even first crushes… A whole summer lies ahead, and for Asya - not only exciting adventures but also real, dangerous challenges: she will have to gather her courage and create a real miracle to save her "almost friend" Kolya Ogurtsov.
Tamara Mikheeva's magical tale has already gone through several reprints: captivating from the very first line, it instantly transports the reader into the charming and familiar atmosphere of a summer camp - the very one where wonders are in a hurry to happen.
Illustrations filled with the colors of summer were created especially for this edition by Lyudmila Pipchenko.
