Who among us does not dream of superpowers: to be invisible, to breathe underwater, to overcome any obstacle - just like the heroes of popular comic books? While Kuzma and Danila are seriously concerned about finding the source of superpowers, Polina has already found it. And it's not a spider bite or a serum with radioactive ingredients, but... the story of her own family. The Rusanovs settled in Siberia over a hundred years ago. The founder of the family Kuzma Anisimovich, according to family legends, had the gift of healing, and his son, grandfather Semyon, is a long-lived man, the keeper of the farmstead and the old branch. The Rusanovs know how to hide and save treasures, run and swim fast - the main thing is not to forget to "open" the river before swimming. Olga Kolpakova is a writer, journalist, author of many books for children of different ages. She was born in the village of Ust-Pustynka, Altai Territory, and saw how to make kizyaki, weave mats on a loom, and steam pumpkins in a Russian stove. Family portrait on the background of the era, created in this book, is based on real events. Small excursions into history, conducted by Ivan Privalov, help to better understand the time in which the Soviet grandfathers had to live. The book was illustrated by Svetlana Kucher. For her, this story is about the most important and real - about the ability not to give up, to fight for themselves, for dear people, not to give up and not to lose dignity in the most different times. For middle and high school age.
