Once upon a time there lived a grandfather and a grandmother. They had a granddaughter Mashenka.

Once the girlfriends got together in the forest to pick mushrooms and berries. They came to invite Mashenka with them.

Grandfather, grandmother, says Mashenka, let me go into the forest with my friends!

Grandfather and grandmother answer:

Go, just make sure you don't lag behind your friends - otherwise you'll get lost.

The girls came to the forest and began picking mushrooms and berries. Here Mashenka - tree by tree, bush by bush - and went far, far away from her friends.

She started calling around and calling them. But my girlfriends don’t hear, they don’t respond.

Mashenka walked and walked through the forest - she got completely lost.

She came to the very wilderness, to the very thicket. He sees a hut standing there. Mashenka knocked on the door - no answer. She pushed the door, the door opened.

Mashenka entered the hut and sat down on a bench by the window.

She sat down and thought:

“Who lives here? Why can’t you see anyone?..” And in that hut lived a huge bear. Only he wasn’t at home then: he was walking through the forest. The bear returned in the evening, saw Mashenka, and was happy.

Yeah,” he says, “now I won’t let you go!” You will live with me. You will light the stove, you will cook porridge, you will feed me porridge.

Masha pushed, grieved, but nothing could be done. She began to live with the bear in the hut.

The bear goes into the forest for the whole day, and Mashenka is told not to leave the hut without him.

“And if you leave,” he says, “I’ll catch you anyway and then I’ll eat you!”

Mashenka began to think about how she could escape from the bear. There are forests all around, he doesn’t know which way to go, there’s no one to ask...

She thought and thought and came up with an idea.

One day a bear comes from the forest, and Mashenka says to him:

Bear, bear, let me go to the village for a day: I’ll bring some gifts to grandma and grandpa.

No, says the bear, you will get lost in the forest. Give me some gifts, I'll take them myself!

And that’s exactly what Mashenka needs!

She baked pies, took out a big, big box and said to the bear:

Here, look: I’ll put the pies in a box, and you take them to grandpa and grandma. Yes, remember: don’t open the box on the way, don’t take out the pies. I’ll climb up the oak tree and keep an eye on you!

Okay,” the bear answers, “give me the box!” Mashenka says:

Go out onto the porch and see if it’s raining! As soon as the bear came out onto the porch, Mashenka immediately climbed into the box and placed a plate of pies on her head.

The bear returned and saw that the box was ready. He put him on his back and went to the village.

A bear walks between fir trees, a bear wanders between birch trees, goes down into ravines, and up hills. He walked and walked, got tired and said:

And Mashenka from the box:

Look, she’s so big-eyed,” says the bear, “she sees everything!” He picked up the box and moved on. He walked and walked and walked and walked, stopped, sat down and said:

I'll sit on a tree stump and eat a pie!

And Mashenka from the box again:

See see! Don't sit on the tree stump, Don't eat the pie! Bring it to grandma, bring it to grandpa!

The bear was surprised:

That's how cunning! He sits high and looks far away! He got up and walked quickly.

I came to the village, found the house where my grandparents lived, and let’s knock on the gate with all our might:

Knock-Knock! Unlock, open! I brought you some gifts from Mashenka.

And the dogs sensed the bear and rushed at him. They run and bark from all the yards.

The bear got scared, put the box at the gate and ran into the forest without looking back.

Grandfather and grandmother came out to the gate. They see that the box is standing.

What's in the box? - says the grandmother.

And grandfather lifted the lid, looked and couldn’t believe his eyes: Mashenka was sitting in the box - alive and healthy.

Grandfather and grandmother were delighted. They began to hug Mashenka, kiss her, and call her smart.
