There is an unusual school in the remote Kamchatka Peninsula. Its students are not boys and girls, but cheerful bear cubs from all corners of our planet: the industrious polar bear Umka from Wrangel Island, the shy panda Pai Shun from China, the restless American wolverine Teddy Black, the funny sloth bear Bhalu from India, and the mysterious Australian koala. Unlike ordinary schoolchildren, the pupils of brown bear Aksinya Potapovna do not sit at their desks all day—they go on hikes, play, hunt, dig their den, catch fish, track animals, and listen to ancient legends. Along the way, they study Kamchatkan plants and animal behaviors, learn about the characteristics of the bear family, and, most importantly, learn to respect nature, help one another, and enjoy true friendship.

Would you like to attend a class at the School of Colorful Bear Cubs? Then allow me to introduce your personal guide through the Kamchatkan trails: Pavel Kalmykov, a children's writer, winner of the "Cherished Dream" literary award, and possessor of an unbridled imagination and inexhaustible sense of humor.

For elementary school children.
