The publishing house "Nigma" is published by a children"s book that has not reprinted since the late 1960s. This is a collection of stories for younger students about friendship, funny incidents and funny joint games.
The main character of the book - Yegor Smekhov - draws well, but does not know how to play checkers and dreams of becoming a clown. He and his friends learn to find a common language and support each other, argue and put up, fantasize and dream. Every day they learn something new.
Is it true that the boy must be a boxer or football player? How to eat a whole cake so that no one notice? And will the drawn elephants be able to run away from hunters?
Leonid Sergeev wrote this book in 1968, but the stories of the ordinary boy Yegor Smekhov and today have not lost relevance. It turns out that the children have not changed so much - even after the era of gadgets.
Anastasia Svetlakova"s illustrations inhaled a new life into these funny children"s stories.
For primary school age.
