When Ivan the merchant’s son refuses to reveal a prophetic dream, his stubborn silence lands him in a dungeon. But the dream holds the key to a prince’s future—and only Ivan can help him win the hand of Yelena the Beautiful. Armed with a hat of invisibility, a flying carpet, fast-running boots, and a clever plan, Ivan must outwit a princess whose impossible challenges conceal even greater dangers. A whimsical Russian wonder tale of magic, cunning, mistaken judgments, and a humble dreamer whose true worth cannot be hidden forever.
