There lived a man and a woman. They had a daughter and a little son.
“Daughter,” the mother said, “we’ll go to work, take care of your brother.” Don't leave the yard, be smart - we'll buy you a handkerchief.

The father and mother left, and the daughter forgot what she was ordered to do: she sat her brother down on the grass under the window, and she ran outside for a walk. Geese-swans swooped in, picked up the boy, and carried him away on their wings.

The girl returned, looked - but her brother was gone! She gasped, rushed to look for him, back and forth - he was nowhere to be found! She called to him, burst into tears, lamented that it would be bad for her father and mother, but her brother did not respond.

She ran out into an open field and only saw: swan geese darted in the distance and disappeared behind the dark forest. Then she realized that they had taken away her brother: there had long been a bad reputation about geese-swans that they carried away small children.

The girl rushed to catch up with them. She ran and ran and saw that there was a stove.
- Stove, stove, tell me, where did the geese-swans fly?
The stove answers her:
- Eat my rye pie, I’ll tell you.
- I’ll eat rye pie! My father doesn’t even eat wheat...
The stove didn't tell her. The girl ran further - there was an apple tree.
- Apple tree, apple tree, tell me, where did the geese-swans fly?
- Eat my forest apple - I’ll tell you.
- My father doesn’t even eat garden ones... The apple tree didn’t tell her. The girl ran further. A milk river flows on the banks of jelly.
- Milk river, jelly banks, where did the swan geese fly?
- Eat my simple jelly with milk - I’ll tell you.
- My father doesn’t even eat cream... She ran for a long time through the fields and forests. The day was approaching evening, there was nothing to do - I had to go home. Suddenly he sees a hut standing on a chicken leg, with one window, turning around.

In the hut, the old Baba Yaga is spinning a tow. And my brother is sitting on the bench, playing with silver apples. The girl entered the hut:
- Hello, grandma!
- Hello, girl! Why did she appear?
“I walked through mosses and swamps, got my dress wet, and came to warm up.”
- Sit down while you spin the tow. Baba Yaga gave her a spindle and left. The girl is spinning - suddenly a mouse runs out from under the stove and says to her:
- Girl, girl, give me some porridge, I’ll tell you something nice.
The girl gave her porridge, the mouse said to her:
- Baba Yaga went to heat the bathhouse. She will wash you, steam you, put you in an oven, fry you and eat you, and ride on your bones herself. The girl sits neither alive nor dead, crying, and the mouse tells her again:
- Don’t wait, take your brother, run, and I’ll spin the tow for you.
The girl took her brother and ran. And Baba Yaga comes to the window and asks:
- Girl, are you spinning?
The mouse answers her:
- I’m spinning, grandma... Baba Yaga heated the bathhouse and went after the girl. And there is no one in the hut.

Baba Yaga shouted:
- Swan geese! Fly in pursuit! My sister took my brother away!..
The sister and brother ran to the milk river. He sees geese-swans flying.
- River, mother, hide me!
- Eat my simple jelly.
The girl ate and said thank you. The river sheltered her under the jelly bank.
The geese-swans did not see it, they flew past. The girl and her brother ran again. And the geese-swans returned to meet us, they are about to see. What to do? Trouble! The apple tree is standing...
- Apple tree, mother, hide me!
- Eat my forest apple. The girl quickly ate it and said thank you. The apple tree shaded it with branches and covered it with leaves.
The geese-swans did not see it, they flew past. The girl ran again. He runs, he runs, he’s not far away. Then the geese-swans saw her, cackled - they swooped in, beat her with their wings, and look, they would tear her brother out of her hands. The girl ran to the stove:
- Stove, mother, hide me!
- Eat my rye pie.
The girl rather put a pie in her mouth, and she and her brother went into the oven, sat down in the stomata.
The geese-swans flew and flew, screamed and shouted, and flew away empty-handed to Baba Yaga.
The girl said thank you to the stove and ran home with her brother.
And then the father and mother came.

Oh, my father doesn’t even eat garden vegetables!

Eat my simple jelly with milk, I’ll say.

Oh, my father can’t even eat cream!

Hedgehog, hedgehog, did you see where the geese flew?

Over there! - pointed.

and the geese fly after her; the villains will catch up, where to go? A milk river runs along the banks of jelly.

Mother River, hide me!

Eat my jelly!

Nothing to do, I ate. The river planted her under the bank, the geese flew by.
She came out and said: “Thank you!” - and again runs with his brother; and the geese have returned and are flying towards. What to do? Trouble! There is an apple tree.

Apple tree, mother apple tree, hide me!

Eat my forest apple!
