This is a story for children from 6 to 12 years old about white dove who is born in the late autumn. His parents can't choose him a name and call him just White Dove. He grows up very fast and learns how to fly. During the first flight dove sees the big and beautiful city. He likes to fly very much, he wants to see more and to fly around the world. However, his parents say him "No". It's too dangerous. Dove sees that there are no white doves like himself in the city - only the gray ones. The parents explain him why. The reason is crows - the main enemies of doves. This battle between them started many years ago: doves are symbols of good and crows are symbols of bad. That's why crows don't like doves. There is a big crow's nest somewhere at the end of the world. There is a black raven in the middle of this nest. Following his order crows steal white doves and hide them in the nest. That's why it is dangerous to fly. This nest can be found only if one flies around the world. White Dove doesn't obey his parents and starts the flight. This first edition of the book contains a chapter "Breath" from author's memoir and essay book "The Alphabet of Childhood", which puts the light on how this fairytale was written.
