Unknown Author

4.9/5 (21110 ratings)

Description:This is a book written far away in Russia, for English children who play in deep lanes with wild roses above them in the high hedges, or by the small singing becks that dance down the gray fells at home. Russian fairyland is quite different. Under my windows the wavelets of the Volkhov (which has its part in one of the stories) are beating quietly in the dusk. A gold light burns on a timber raft floating down the river. Beyond the river in the blue midsummer twilight are the broad Russian plain and the distant forest. Somewhere in that forest of great trees--a forest so big that the forests of England are little woods beside it--is the hut where old Peter sits at night and tells these stories to his grandchildren.Contents:The hut in the forest --The tale of the silver saucer and the transparent apple --Sadko --Frost --The fool of the world and the flying ship --Baba Yaga --The cat who became head-forester --Spring in the forest --The little daughter of the Snow --Prince Ivan, the witch baby and the little sister of the sun --The stolen turnips, the magic tablecloth, the sneezing goat and the wooden whistle --Little Master Misery --A chapter of fish --The golden fish --Who lived in the skull? --Alenoushka and her brother --The fire-bird, the horse of power and the Princess Vasilissa --The hunter and his wife --The three men of power : Evening, Midnight, and Sunrise --Salt --The christening in the village.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
