Malusya spent the last summer before school at the dacha. One day, she went for a walk around the village and ended up on "Lomashkovaya" (Break-it) Street – she had intended to go to "Romashkovaya" (Chamomile) Street, but she couldn't pronounce it and ended up at the wrong address. Living here are the "lomashki" – unpleasant hooligans who sing nasty songs:
We’re the Breakers, we’re the Breakers!
Smashing plates and cups and shakers!
Smashing glass and furniture too –
Breaking everything in view!
We’ve been breaking, we’ve been breaking,
Our little fingers are aching!
We’ll rest a bit and then we’ll go,
Back to breaking, don’t you know!
Malusya ran away from the breakers and met a strange creature: a cow's head attached to a post, with four small pegs for legs. It turned out to be a "cow-post." Malusya and the cow-post continued their journey through this mysterious land together and met a "molyak"...
Many amazing adventures await the heroes, including:
- They will have to help a miserable king carrying a heavy column on his head.
- They will figure out how to swap the treacherous "deafen-ers" (which make everyone go deaf) for fragrant pears.
- They will bring happiness to a mother by turning her daughter, who had been enchanted into a cat, back into a little girl.
- They will be taken prisoner by boys who call themselves "wolves," howl dismal songs at night, and have suspiciously sharp little teeth.
The friends' journey is thorny, with dangers lurking at every turn, but the most serious challenge awaits at the end – a meeting with the ruler of this unfriendly land, the mystical Rogo-ped.
We recommend Andrey Usachev’s "Malusya and the Rogo-ped" not just to those with speech problems, but to everyone, because first and foremost, it is an adventure fairy tale, not a therapeutic one. Let's go!
