Frosya and her grandmother Aglaya Ermolaevna live in a monument. Not a statue, of course. In an architectural monument! The girl lives in a real village, considers herself a "village woman Efrosinya," knows how to dig, water, and fend off the drunkard Nikanor… Her concerns are sometimes different from those of an ordinary girl: not about new outfits and computer games, but about how to get to the city in a snowfall, or how to manage the household alone if her grandmother is in the hospital (her only helper was a bear named Gerasim). And then, on top of that, their house was stolen! This book features amazing characters, wonderful humor, many strange words like "podklet" (basement) and "okhlupen" (ridge log), and even fresh country air!
