Kristina Kretova: Asta-Hurricane. Traveling in Russia

In the beautiful northern city of St. Petersburg, there lived a girl with the unusual name Asta. Aska, at first glance, was the most ordinary girl, but she had one feature: the fact is that she knew how to travel not only on trains and planes, but also with the winds. In this book we will talk about a not quite typical trip, unusual even for such an experienced traveler as our heroine. In this book we will see the Ural Mountains, Lake Baikal, Vladivostok, the Sea of ​​Japan and the Pacific Ocean. The book about Asta was born from the stories that Kristina Kretova told in the evenings to her eldest daughter Asya. The tale of the girl Asta, endowed with the magical ability to travel with the wind, existed for a long time only in the family circle. When a lot of stories accumulated, Christina asked her close friend of the artist Natalya Romankova to illustrate these adventures. According to the author and illustrator, their children have become the main critics of the stories, and they hope that other children will also like these sincere, kind and instructive adventures of a little traveler.
