The book includes two fairy tales: “How the Raven and the Owl Decorated Each Other” and “Teals and the Foxes.” The character of the first fairy tale, the raven, is hardworking and responsible. He carefully painted the owl with beautiful black spots, hoping in his heart that the owl would also make him handsome. However, the insidious and impatient owl, without thinking twice, turned the raven black from head to tail. The hero of the second fairy tale, the fox, considered himself more cunning than anyone in the world. But the friendly waterfowl teal birds taught the braggart a lesson, and even bathed him in the sea. The tales were illustrated by the wonderful artist Vadim Alekseevich Sinani. The book is being published for the first time. Recommended for preschool children and adults - connoisseurs of good book illustrations.
