This is the first educational book in the children's series “Nastya and Nikita”, which opens the “Travel” section. On a walk in the forest, where Nastya and Nikita unexpectedly got lost, but were then happily found, dad tells the kids about the taiga - an amazing forest ocean that covers the expanses of Siberia and the Far East. On the pages of the book, in text and drawings, there appears a compact encyclopedia of the flora and fauna of this rich and harsh region, understandable to the small reader, as well as information about the peoples inhabiting these places, their way of life and activities.
