This book tells you stories about how adults and children lived in the USSR. Children and adults perceive the world differently. Or maybe these differences are not so great? Is there anything to learn from your elders and what can you talk about with your family? These stories do not provide general recipes, but they are based on real events. The collection presents the story “For the overall development” which was included in the shortlist of the all-Russian competition Turgenev in 2018.

Adults love fairy tales as much as children. Especially when new stories and characters are waiting for the readers. These are the stories that we have collected in our book. These tales have been read by professional editors, writers and simple fans of fairy tales and became finalists of the “Fairy Tale Competition” of the Gorky Literary Institute in 2020. Readers note the unusual plots, unobtrusive morality, respect for things and the fullness of each story with a warm, kind meaning.
