A good book for the younger readers that adults can also enjoy. Written in a simple language, at times funny, at times suspensful.

Если вы любите атмосферу советских лагерей, тайны, пионерскую романтику и хорошую литературу для подростков — эта книга точно для вас.

من این کتاب رو از کتابخونه ی مدرسه پیدا کردم و با هیجان بسیار زیادی شروع به خوندنش کردم.اما متاسفانه اصلا ترجمه ی روانی نداره و اگر اشتباه نکنم توسط مترجمان روس بنگاه نشریات پروگرس ترجمه شده.اگر یک شخص فارسی زبان این کتاب رو ترجمه میکرد شاید بهتر میبود چون من با وجود این ترجمه دیگه خیلی مشتاق به خوندنش نیستم.

Dragged a bit for me, but I think this adventure story will appeal to pre-teen boys.
