While drawing in class at Stagwood School, 12-year old Cal sees a frog staring at him through the window. Stranger than that, is the fact that this frog happens to be wearing glasses.

Cal and his best friend, Soy, learn that the frog (who prefers the name Deli) has sought them out for a reason. When a school administrator named Ream reveals himself to be a dragon, the boys discover that fairytales are real, and that there is magic afoot in Stagwood. With Ream on their tail, the trio must unearth a powerful tool protected by riddles and rile (the magic that fuels nightmares) to save the fate of all fairytales past. But, before Cal can defeat Ream, he has to deal with Soy's knack for arguing with magical creatures, discover the truth about Deli's identity, and earn his place as the hero of the story. The Guardians of Lore is a middle grade novel that centers around two life-long friends, infusing humor and fantasy-based riddles into a modern fairytale.

This quirky tale is about our most infamous character of all. If you don’t have a soufflé-baking, trumpet-blaring, sleigh-riding friend, then maybe it’s time that you met Ms. McKay. Told as a monorhyme poem. “Say what you will or say what you may, you’ll remember the day that you met Ms. McKay…”

 

Mr. McKay is a most mischievous fellow. His hair and eyes have been known to change color with the seasons. If you ever feel a warm breeze on a very cold winter day, be sure to keep your coat on, because it may be Mr. McKay playing his trick! A light-hearted, rhyming bedtime story about keeping your coat on when it’s awfully cold outside.

Friends Kolya and Mishka, after unsuccessful tests of a steam engine made with their own hands, decide to make an incubator to hatch chickens - this is how Nosov's Merry Family audio story begins.

The guys made an apparatus, installed an electric lamp and began to maintain the required temperature. The eggs just laid by the hen were taken from the village.

The boys were on duty around the clock at the incubator, and when they had classes at school, Misha's sister took over the post, who was promised one chicken for this.

In the end, the guys got so tired that they began to study badly and stopped attending classes in the youth club. Classmates criticized them for poor progress, and when they heard what was the matter, they set up shift duty behind the incubator, in which real chickens were about to appear.

And then the day came when the chickens hatched in a homemade incubator! True, out of twelve eggs only ten chickens turned out, and then one out of ten turned out to be very weak and died, but still it was a huge achievement. The guys took the whole cheerful family of little fluffy lumps to the village and gave them to the very woman from whom they took the eggs. On this online audio story Nosov comes to an end.
