Лис Микита

Mykyta the Fox

King Lion has summoned every animal to court, and every one of them has a complaint against Mykyta the Fox. Ivan Franko's beloved satire, retold in fresh, readable prose: a honey trap for the bear, a noose for the cat, a gallows speech that turns into a treasure hunt, and a duel no one expects the fox to win. It grows from A2 to B1, one chapter of trickery at a time.
