First Spirin-illustrated edition. Despite being told by his mother that he is too young to go to school like his older brother Peter, Philipok sets out on his own, braving wintry winds and a fierce dog to surprise Peter, the other children, and their teacher. Gennady Spirins breathtaking watercolor illustrations bring new life to this wonderful tale by one of the masters of nineteenth century literature, Leo Tolstoy.
