This book for family reading contains the best works of Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy, which for more than a century have been loved by both preschool children and demanding teenagers. The main characters of the stories are children, “poor”, “dexterous”, and therefore close to modern boys and girls. The book teaches love - for man and for everything that surrounds him: nature, animals, native land. She is kind and bright, like all the works of the brilliant writer. Artists Nadezhda Lukina, Irina and Alexander Chukavin.
