Author's blurb:
Ten-year-old Alex and his nine-year-old sister Katie are on a mission to save a young man named Emelya who is imprisoned by an evil tsar. Once again, they leave Aunt Karina behind and enter the magical painting that leads them into the world of Russian fairy-tales.

The forest around them is dark and dense, and they stop by a log cabin to ask for directions. A creature in a sheepskin's coat with green furry hands opens the door. His emerald eyes shine a bright green light right at Alex and Katie. Is he a friend or an enemy? Will Alex and Katie find Emelya? Will they return safely to Aunt Karina's house?

This series is a unique, fascinating and exciting modern interpretation of old Russian folktales for today's American kids.
