The first edition of Gerald Durrell's wonderful children's book in Russian! A fantastic, exciting, and educational story about an incredible round-the-world journey in a flying house. Two boys and their sister Emma, together with Grandpa Lancelot, set out in search of Uncle Percival, who went to Africa to see the elephants. But the journey will prove difficult: following Percival, the brave travelers will make landings not only in South Africa, but also in Australia, Canada and North America, the North Pole, and Brazil. And, of course, they will meet (and even be able to talk to!) the most amazing inhabitants of these places - crocodiles and penguins, camels and killer whales, koalas, beavers, exotic butterflies, and many others.
Illustrations by the world-famous artist Graham Percy. Translated by Dina Krupskaya.
