Outside in the forest there was deep snow, and the sound of more falling down from the branches, but the little hut where Old Peter lived with his grandchildren Vanya and Maroosia was snug and warm, and there was nothing cosier in the world than sitting by the stove and listening to his stories.

Arthur Ransome (1884–1967) was a British author and journalist, best known for writing the Swallows and Amazons series of children’s books about the school-holiday adventures of children. After mastering Russian, he lived in that country for nearly ten years, most of the time as a journalist covering the tumultuous events of the First World War and the Russian Revolution. It was during this time that he collected the tales contained in this book.
