Since the beginning of time, people have looked at the sky and thought about the stars. They tried to comprehend the secrets of the constellations and heavenly bodies, composed legends about them and gave them names. The constellations illuminated the road for the peoples of Siberia and the Far East, predicted the weather, frightened and delighted, gave strength and gave hope.
The book contains fairy tales about constellations, luminaries and other celestial inhabitants, which were invented by peoples living in Siberia and the Far East: Evenks, Kets, Khakasses, Buryats and Altaians. And they were retold by the writer Marina Babanskaya, who spent all her childhood in Vladivostok and since then has been in love with these lands.
Looking at the bottomless night sky, the Evenks came up with a fairy tale about how the Bug elk stole the Sun, the bright stars of the Pleiades told the Khakass the legend of the seven ice maidens, and the thin moon told the Kets its story - about how he was once on earth a young man without a soul.
