The Phone and Other Stories

Before you is the classic of children's literature in its most mischievous embodiment. The cheerful and instructive stories of the famous writer Nikolai Nosov are known and loved by everyone in our country, from young to old. More than eighty years have passed since their first publication, but they remain modern to this day — boys and girls see themselves in the characters of these stories and laugh heartily at the funny incidents from the lives of their literary peers. In this collection, classic stories have come to life with bright colors thanks to the talent of the Soviet artist Herman Ogorodnikov.
