Winter Tales Collection

In winter, we especially want to believe in fairy tales and magic. And miracles will happen! A pike will speak in a human voice and fulfill any of Emelya's wishes; the elder brother will rescue the younger brother from the... icy captivity of Grandfather Frost; the diligent spinner will not only not drown in the ice hole but will also receive a chest of dowry and a box of jewels for her efforts; the wizard Morozko will also be generous with rewards, but only to those who are not picky and love to work; the orphan Darёнka will indeed meet a little goat with a silver hoof on its right front leg, and he will bestow precious stones upon her and Grandfather Kokovanya; the grandfather and grandmother will go out into the yard, will mold a doll out of snow, and it will suddenly come to life… The fairy tales included in this collection are illustrated by the outstanding masters of book illustration Nikolai Kochergin, Nina Noskovich, and Marina Uspenskaya.
