The main character of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "The Story of the Year" is nature, changing its appearance with the change of seasons. One day, an old sparrow noticed that the New Year comes with the arrival of spring. And spring comes when storks arrive. And so spring comes, and with it, two storks bring children on their backs - a boy and a girl. The children grow, and nature comes to life, filling with strength. Flowers bloom, groves turn green, the sun warms the earth... Summer comes, the young man becomes a stately man, and the girl - a beautiful woman, his wife. Fruits fill with juice, ears of grain turn yellow... Finally, the forests are dressed in gold, cold weather sets in, and the wife of the ruler of the year retires. And he himself, now a gray-haired old man, covers the ground with snow and looks into the distance from a high hill, patiently awaiting the arrival of a new couple... The lyrical tale is illustrated with lively and colorful drawings by the artist Anna Hopta.
