Baron Munchausen flew to the moon, now the main inventor is Captain Blue Bear. Adults and children will admire his stories, be surprised and, of course, believe... Do not envy cats with their nine lives. The captain named Blue Bear has twenty-seven of them, and he lives each one incredibly inventively. One day, floating on the Zamonian Sea in a nutshell, he was rescued by dwarf pirates and cared for until he grew too big. Two chattering waves taught the Blue Bear to speak, and the dinosaur Mack saved him from a predator island. The captain learned various wisdom at the night academy...Even a not-too-assiduous reader can easily overcome the endless series of amazing adventures of the Blue Bear. In a word, 13 1/2 lives are thirteen and a half amazing journeys through a fabulous country, where everything is possible except boredom.
