Have you ever tried mailing a live bat? No? And never received a package containing life-giving powder? And never seen giant transparent owls in the park? Then you have a long life ahead of you. As one of the characters in this fairy tale says, "In our country, there's no clear division between the magical and non-magical worlds." And in our ordinary lives, there are still places where only those who need and can find themselves can find themselves.
So, twelve-year-old Nikita finds himself in an extraordinary post office, where he becomes a courier flying on a metal Goose-Swan. There, he befriends a girl named Yanika and a boy named Marat. Along the way, he learns how to use living and dead water, encounters a flock of huts on chicken legs... And then he's amazed: wow – just an ordinary post office job! And all this happens a week before the New Year.
After reading this story, you'll definitely be eagerly awaiting the sequel. Many know Darya Gerasimova as a children's writer and poet, a winner of literary awards; others know her primarily as an artist with a highly recognizable style. But in this book, she is the text author, and her daughter, artist Maria Oranovskaya, illustrated this "urban fairy tale." Therefore, the illustrations are as unique as the events in the text.
