Bright and original Ural tales by Pavel Bazhov. Their heroes are honest and brave people who find themselves in unusual fairy-tale circumstances. What won't they encounter along the way! Stepan will meet the Mistress of the Copper Mountain, and she will turn into a nimble lizard, then the boys Lanko and Leiko will try to outwit the Blue Snake, but evil thoughts do not lead to good, then the orphan Daryonka with Kokovanya will see a goat with a silver hoof, which leaves behind precious chrysolites. The works preserve the special atmosphere of the Ural lands, where the harsh reality of the way of life of ordinary people is permeated with a fairy-tale spirit and elusive beauty.

A gift edition in magnificent printing performance. Hardcover with convex elements and partial varnish. Colored endpapers. Thick paper. Clear, large, easy-to-read font.

Colorful and detailed illustrations in a unique style were created by the famous artist Maxim Mitrofanov. In his creations, the malachite-colored lizards, as if alive, are about to crawl, and the precious stones seem to really glow on the pages of the book.
