Once the girlfriends gathered in the forest - for mushrooms and berries. They came to call Mashenka with them.
- Grandfather, grandmother, - Mashenka says, - let me go into the forest with my friends!
Grandparents answer:
- Go, just don't lag behind your girlfriends - or you'll get lost.

The girls came to the forest, began to pick mushrooms and berries. Here Mashenka — tree by tree, bush by bush — has gone far, far away from her friends.

She began to haunt, began to call them. And the girlfriends do not hear, do not respond.


Mashenka walked, walked through the forest - she was completely lost.
She came into the very wilderness, into the thicket. He sees there is a hut.


Mashenka knocked on the door - they do not answer. She pushed the door, the door and opened.
Mashenka entered the hut, sat down on a bench by the window.
She sat down and thought:
“Who lives here? Why can't I see anyone? .. ”And in that hut there lived a huge bear. Only he was not at home then: he walked through the forest. The bear returned in the evening, saw Mashenka, was delighted.


- Aha, - he says, - now I won't let you go! You will live with me. You will heat the stove, you will cook porridge, feed me with porridge.
Masha paused, grieved, but nothing can be done. She began to live with a bear in a hut.
The bear will go into the forest for the whole day, and Mashenka is punished not to leave the hut anywhere without him.
“And if you leave,” he says, “I’ll catch it anyway, and then I’ll eat it!”
Mashenka began to think how she could run away from the bear. All around the forest, in which direction to go - he does not know, there is no one to ask ...
She thought, thought and thought.
Once a bear comes from the forest, and Mashenka says to him:
- Bear, bear, let me go to the village for a day: I’ll take away gifts for grandmother and grandfather.
- No, - says the bear, - you will get lost in the forest. Give me some presents, I'll take them myself!
And Mashenka needs it!

She baked pies, took out a large, very large box and said to the bear:
- Here, look: I'll put the pies in the box, and you take them to your grandfather and grandmother. But remember: don't open the box on the way, don't take out the pies. I'll climb an oak tree, I'll follow you!
- Okay, - the bear answers, - let's get the box! Mashenka says:
- Go out on the porch, see if it's raining! As soon as the bear came out onto the porch, Mashenka immediately climbed into the box, and put a dish of pies on her head.
The bear returned, he sees - the box is ready. I put him on my back and went to the village.
A bear walks between trees, a bear walks between birches, descends into ravines, climbs hills. Walked, walked, tired and said:
I'll sit on a tree stump
Eat a pie!
And Mashenka out of the box:
See see!
Don't sit on a tree stump
Don't eat the pie!
Bring it to your grandmother
Bring it to grandfather!
- Look what big-eyed, - the bear says, - sees everything! He lifted the box and walked on.

Walked, walked, walked, stopped, sat down and said:
I'll sit on a tree stump
Eat a pie!
And Mashenka out of the box again:
See see!
Don't sit on a tree stump
Don't eat the pie!
Bring it to your grandmother
Bring it to grandfather!
The bear was surprised:
- That's how cunning! Sits high, looks far away! I got up and walked quickly.
I came to the village, found the house where grandfather and grandmother lived, and let's knock on the gate with all our might:
- Knock-Knock! Unlock, unlock! I brought you some gifts from Mashenka.
And the dogs smelled a bear and rushed at him. They run from all the yards, bark.
The bear got scared, put the box at the gate and set off into the forest without looking back.
Here grandfather and grandmother went out to the gate. They see 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 Masha, kiss, call her a clever girl.

    Once upon a time there was an old man with an old woman. They had a daughter, Masha. Her friends gathered in the forest for berries and came to call her with them. Mother and father let Masha go and told her to keep up with her friends. The girls came to the forest and began to pick berries. Masha went behind the bushes and lagged behind the girls. She walked, walked through the forest, completely lost her way and came to a forest hut. She knocked - no one answers. I touched the door - the door opened. Masha entered the hut and sat on a bench.

    And a bear lived in the hut. Only he was not at home then. The bear returned in the evening, saw the girl and was delighted.
    - Now, - he says, - I will not let you go, you will live with me!
    Masha cried, but nothing can be done. She began to live with a bear in a forest hut.
    The bear went into the forest for the whole day and ordered Masha not to run away without asking.
    “And if you run away,” the bear says, “I’ll catch it anyway, and then I’ll eat it!”
    Masha began to think: how to run away from the bear? I thought and thought and came up with it.
    - Bear, - she says, - take the little gift to the father and mother in the village!
    The bear agreed.

    Here Masha baked pies, took out a large, very large basket and said to the bear:
    Here in this basket I will put pies, and you take it to our village. Just look - don't eat a single pie! I'll climb on the roof and watch you.
    As soon as the bear came out onto the porch, Masha immediately climbed into the basket, and put the pies on top. The bear returned, saw that the basket was ready, he put it on his shoulders and went to the village.
    Walked, walked, tired and said:
    - I'll sit on a tree stump,
    Eat a pie!
    And Masha from the basket:

    The bear looked around and said:
    - How cunning! Sits high, looks far away!
    He raised the basket and walked on.
    Has passed a little more and says:
    - I'll sit on a tree stump,
    Eat a pie!
    And Masha from the basket again shouts:
    - See see! Don't sit on a tree stump, don't eat a pie!
    The bear was scared:
    - That's how cunning! Sits high, looks far away!

    I got up and ran quickly.
    He ran to the village, found the house where Machina's father and mother lived, and knocks on the gate:
    - Knock-Knock! Open, unlock, I brought you presents from your daughter!
    And the dogs smelled a bear and rushed at him. The bear got scared, put the basket at the gate, and ran away into the forest.
    The old man and the old woman went out to the gate, raised the basket, and in the basket Masha sits and laughs.

Once upon a time there was a girl named Masha. One day she wanted to play with her friends. But grandfather and grandmother strictly ordered her to keep up with the girls and not go far into the forest. As it happens with children, during the game, and even while picking berries, Masha did not notice how lost she was. Having strayed through the woods, she finds herself in the house where the bear lived. Having found her at home, the bear decided not to let the girl go away, instructing her to heat the stove, clean the house and cook to eat.
Masha stoked him the stove and cooked porridge, but did not want to let go brown bear her home. Then she went for a trick. She baked pies and asked the bear to take the presents to her grandparents. Having shown ingenuity and resourcefulness, namely, hiding in a basket under a platter of pies, little Masha reached the village. The girl's resourcefulness in the question of how to persuade the bear not to open the basket manifested itself in an interesting way.

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

Once the girlfriends gathered in the forest for mushrooms and berries. They came to call Mashenka with them.

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

Masha paused, grieved, but nothing can be done. She began to live with a bear in a hut.

The bear will go into the forest for the whole day, and Mashenka is punished not to leave the hut anywhere without him.

And if you leave, - he says, - I will catch it anyway and then I'll eat it!

Here, look: I will put pies in this box, and you take them to your grandfather and grandmother. But remember: don't open the box on the way, don't take out the pies. I'll climb an oak tree, I'll follow you!

Okay, - the bear answers, - let's get the box!

Go out on 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 put a dish of pies on her head.

Knock-Knock! Unlock, unlock! I brought you some presents from Mashenka.

And the dogs smelled a bear and rushed at him. They run from all the yards, bark.
