After sitting in the closet for a while, the boy did not understand why he was closed by his friend.

And somehow she had the idea to help adults in their search for iron for the delivery of scrap metal. When she showed the way to two grown boys, she forgot the way and got lost. The boys helped to find their way home.

Diary of Kolya Sinitsyn

An entertaining instructive situation about an excellent student named Kolya Sinitsyn, who decided to keep a diary during the summer holidays. Kolya's mother promised to buy him a pen if he writes everything carefully. The boy tried to write down all his own thoughts and events, but he got so carried away that his notebook ran out.

Metro

The story of the journey of two little boys who got into the metropolitan subway when they lived with their own aunt. After watching the moving stairs, stops and taking a ride on the train, the boys were convinced that they were lost. And suddenly they met their mother and aunt, who laughed at the situation. And in the end they themselves got lost.

Nosov became a student at the Kiev Art Institute, and two years later transferred to the Institute of Cinematography, having received a diploma from which, he began working as a director of popular science, animation and educational films, produced in very good quality. It was work in this area that brought Nosov the Order of the Red Star.

The author begins to publish his stories since 1938, mainly in "Murzilka" - readers get acquainted with such works of him as "Mishkina porridge", "Fantasy", "Gardeners" and other wonderful stories that were included in the collection "Knock-knock-knock”, published in 1945

Nikolay Nosov: "Writing for children is the best job"

Sometimes it seems that for famous people in their lives everything was smooth and understandable. They immediately began to write, found their calling, gained fame. But this is not the case. Everything in Nikolai Nosov's life developed in such a way that he had to deal with technology, but ... he became the favorite children's writer of many generations.

This article is an unusual biography of the writer - "living" and "human", without dry phrases, but with life lessons for all of us. Talking about the biography of Nikolai Nosov, we will try to see in it that life lesson that will help us to go towards our goals, understand ourselves and do good deeds in this wonderful world!

Biography of Nikolai Nosov: riddles of an interesting fate

Speaking about a children's writer, I would like to get as close as possible to him from the perspective of a child, to understand why children in different countries love Dunno so much and where does this inexhaustible fantasy that created a whole world of amazing heroes come from?

Let's try to reveal the secrets of the "secret at the bottom of the well" - this is how N. Nosov called the book - an autobiography about his childhood years. And we will start looking for answers to the riddles of his interesting creative fate in the childhood of the writer, because it is this time of a person's life that he chose as the main one in his works.

The childhood of Nikolai Nosov: where did Dunno come from and who is he?

Nikolai grew up in a large family, there were two more brothers and a sister, and their dad was an actor. Nikolai really liked his father's performances, the family even thought that he would follow in the footsteps of his parent.

The boy decided to learn to play the violin, introducing himself as a musician. But it turned out that it was not so easy, and Kolya abandoned the violin.

Then he became interested in chemistry, dreaming of seeing himself as a scientist in a white coat, making amazing discoveries in the field of science.

He was also fond of photography, chess, playing the mandolin, and even trained dogs. During his school years, Nikolai published a handwritten magazine "IKS", staged "Taras Bulba" on the amateur school stage

The figure below in this article presents all the hobbies and professions of Nikolai Nosov. They are reflected in his works, especially in The Adventures of Dunno.

The author gives each short man a social status, that is, gives him a profession: artist Tube, musician Gusl, astronomer Steklyashkin, doctor Pilyulkin, mechanics Vintik and Shpuntik, scientist Znayka, etc. And the little man is happy to try, he faithfully follows his destiny. Here are just the main character - Dunno - has not yet decided on the choice of his life path. The author allows us to trace how Dunno is looking for himself. And you must admit it is very interesting.

This path - the path of searching for his life path, the path of Dunno - went through Nikolai Nosov in his life.

The childhood of Nikolai Nosov had a difficult time, the First World War and the Civil War left their mark. The entire family of the writer fell ill with typhus, and Kolya was sick the longest. But everyone survived, it was perceived as a miracle at the time. Nosov remembered for the rest of his life how his mother cried with joy when he recovered: "So I learned that you can cry not only from grief."

The author has developed a sensitive attitude to tears, especially to a child's tear. He believed that a crying child must certainly be comforted, asked who offended him, what happened. Because when a child cries, "it is no less difficult for him than for us, in a moment of mental adversity, but we somehow indifferently look at his tears and ... consider them just foolishness or whim." Nosov does not believe physiologists that “children and old people often cry because ... their lacrimal glands easily release moisture. I know that it is not so! They cry because they do not yet (or no longer) have the strength to cope with the feelings that this incomprehensible and unforgiving life instills in them. Suffering from this does not decrease, but only increases. " We will not see such a Nosov directly in his stories, but his attentiveness to the problems of the child, the triumph of goodness and morality pass through all creativity.

Little Nikolai was not the perfect student or the perfect child. There was a time when the gymnasium student Nikolai quit doing his homework, got a deuce and stayed for a second year. After which he was listed among the most lagging students. But one day he heard such a dialogue of adults. To the question "How does he study," his teacher replied: "Nothing," hesitating for a second. The boy immediately changed his outlook on adults and gained confidence in them. The easiest way was to call him lagging behind, the harder it was to believe in his capabilities. And it happened! After that, Nikolai always tried to see the good in people and in the heroes of his works.

After that, the epic of little Nicholas mastering the gymnasium program began - it was necessary to make up for everything that had been lost in previous years. He studies mathematics from the textbook and copes with algebra "self-taught". Physics and chemistry suddenly fascinate him so much that he makes a real laboratory at home in the attic and dreams of becoming a chemist. He also plays in the orchestra, reads a lot, sings in the school choir, plays chess beautifully! He studies harmony, reads a lot of Russian classics. He himself prepares his brother and sister for entering the fourth grade of the gymnasium, teaching them! Even having met street children on the street, Nikolai does not avoid them, but enters their circle and introduces the book and explains that “the book is food for the mind”, reads Leskov’s story to them and teaches them by heart “A green oak near the sea.”

In the life of Nikolai Nosov there were different people and different cases. But he approached life very rationally and professed the principle of "seeing everything, not blaming anyone."

Adolescence and youth of Nikolai Nosov

To feed the family Nikolay was forced to work from the age of 14: was a newspaper merchant, excavator, mower, etc. After 1917, the gymnasium was reorganized into a seven-year school. Having finished it in 1924, he worked as a laborer at a concrete plant in Irpen, then at a private brick factory in the city of Bucha.

It was little Nikolai who saved his family in difficult years of famine.- he harrowed the garden, planted potatoes with his older brother and sister. After all, the father was working, the mother was engaged in women's chores, the older brother at that time was already studying painting. Nikolai was not afraid of difficult work - he crushed crushed stone at a concrete plant, worked at a brick factory, mowed grass for a goat, sold newspapers, carried heavy logs to the station, taught children to read and write, and calmly took work for a "piece of bread." But - working for a piece of bread - he always dreamed of finding his calling. Nikolai wrote that he felt in his soul “Sherlock Holmes, the Gadfly and Christopher Columbus - one in three persons; and if we are to tell the truth to the end, then Captain Nemo - that was me too. "

Everything went to the fact that Nikolai clearly had to go to study at the Polytechnic Institute. Nikolai passionately dreamed of becoming a chemist! But - His Majesty Chance intervened.

Nikolai wanted to enter the chemistry department of the Kiev Polytechnic Institute, but he could not, since he did not graduate from the vocational school, which gives a completed secondary education. But then a new hobby in life suddenly came to him, which gave a completely different direction to his life!

His passion for teaching prevented him from becoming a chemist :). This is how it happened.

Nikolai's brother was engaged in drawing. Nikolai explained to his brother that he was drawing incorrectly: it was necessary to display not just anything in the picture, but a state of mind! This is the most important thing in the picture, the special state of the Artist in her Creation! Therefore, you need to choose a special place according to the mood of the picture. To convey his thought to his brother, Kolya decided to take a photograph (he did not know how to draw at all, so he could not convey his thought in drawing). To do this, he had to read several filing magazines from photography, make a camera, buy reagents and everything you need. The photo has turned out! And .. Nikolay suddenly became interested in photography and decided that this would be his way “Tell the world at least something kind”!And he entered the film department of the Kiev School of Painting and Sculpture.

And after 2 years, in 1929, Nikolai Nosov transferred to the Moscow Institute of Cinematography. After graduating from this institute, Nikolai became a director and director of scientific, animated and educational films.

The writer will devote more than 20 years of his life to cinema; he will also work as an animation artist.

This is interesting: such an episode from the life of Nikolai Nosov has survived.

Once N. Nosov was instructed to make a film about the structure and operation of the British Churchill tank. One tank was taken to the studio and an English instructor showed the Russian tank driver how to operate the tank. The British left, but a few days later, during the filming, the tank, instead of turning around its axis, began to describe a curved arc. The tanker was nervous and fussed, but the tank stubbornly did not want to turn and from a maneuverable vehicle turned into a clumsy slow-moving vehicle.

Nikolai Nikolaevich asked to sit next to the driver. Not only the fate of the film depended on the solution to the control, but also the fate of the tank, which was supposed to enter service with the Soviet troops. Nikolai Nikolayevich had previously worked on an educational film about tractors and was generally well versed in machines. Soon, observing the actions of the mechanic, he discovered an error. The driver was embarrassed, apologized to Nosov and did not want to believe that the director knew the technique simply as an amateur. Nosov also filmed the work of various parts of the machine, accompanying their showing with Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.

For this film, and for his work in the field of scientific and technical cinema, Nosov was awarded the Order of the Red Star in 1943.

Despite the difficult moments of childhood, Nosov developed one very good quality - he was able to discern their best sides in people.

Another example from his childhood to illustrate what was said. In the gymnasium where Kolya studied, the teachers were very strict with the students. Once Kolya accidentally bumped into the doorway with the exiting teacher. Expecting the inevitable punishment, the boy, throughout the lesson, peered into every movement of the teacher: what he planned, how he decided to punish him or take revenge. But there was no punishment, and a suspicion crept into Colin's head that his teacher was just a good person. This quality is reflected in the future and in the work of the writer, each of the short ones is endowed with certain good character traits, maybe in someone they are more or less manifested, but there is a seed of goodness in everyone.

How and when did Nikolai Nosov become a children's writer: what is the secret of the popularity of his works?

Many of us think that at the age of 30 it is too late to start something new :). There is already a specialty and ... why change it. But ... Nikolai Nosov wrote nothing, nothing at all until ... 30 years! And I wasn't even going to write!

N. Nosov himself admitted that he came to children's literature quite by accident and did not even dream of the profession and career of a children's writer.

Nosov began to write stories at the age of 37, when his son was already growing up. And these entertaining stories were written just for him. I just had to write something funny for my little son and his friends - preschoolers.And ten years later he was already a famous writer and received a prestigious state prize for his work!

Nikolai Nosov's debut as a writer took place in 1938- this was his first story for children "Zateyniki". Soon the stories began to be published in one of the most famous and popular children's magazines at that time - in "Murzilka".

The first collection of children's stories was published in 1945 in Detgiz. It includes the stories "Living Hat", "Mishkina's porridge", "Fantasy", "Gardeners", "Wonderful trousers", "Knock-knock-knock" and others.

If you think that after the publication of this book Nosov decided to become a writer, then you are mistaken. He was not going to change his job and continued to work in cinematography.

The situation changed dramatically only in 1951.

How Nikolai Nosov entered the “big literary world” and became a professional writer: in 1951 in the magazine "New World" was published the story of N. Nosov "Vitya Maleev at school and at home." The chief editor of the "New World" magazine at that time was A.T. Tvardovsky. With his "light hand" from that moment to Nosov and fame came. And the story received a high award - the State Prize of the USSR. Since that time, Nikolai Nosov finally left the world of cinema and became a professional writer.

Interesting Facts: In 1957 (six years after N. Nosov's decision to become a writer), a list of writers was compiled, most of whom were translated into other languages. Nikolay Nosov was the third in the list. His characters spoke different languages.

“Gradually I realized that composing for children is the best job, it requires a lot of knowledge, and not only literary ... ”- this is how the author himself spoke about his work.

Nikolai Nosov, treating his son with great respect, transferred this to all the children to whom the stories are addressed. Children feel it, this is exactly the position that Nosov adhered to, they not only feel, but also give back their respect and love in return. So isn't this the secret of the writer's popularity?

Without knowing it, children often provided food for stories.Each story told to us by N. Nosov has an echo and origin in real life.

For example, the story "Cucumbers" he wrote from a story that happened to his five-year-old nephew. One day a boy was walking next to a vegetable tent. He saw a barrel of pickles behind the tent, climbed into it with both hands, grabbed a cucumber in each and, satisfied, went to his mother. And what happened next is described in the story "Cucumbers" - watch the video below with your kids.

The books are filled with the same fidgets, inventors and dreamers, like all of us in the land of childhood. These are ordinary boys and girls with whom various funny stories happen. Remember your childhood, I'm sure, and you will find a dozen of such stories.

And here is how the grandson of the writer Igor recalls his childhood and his grandfather Nikolai Nosov:

“1) I was always busy.
2) Always played with me. Either he wrote or played ... He adored his son, my father, adored me. ... I loved buying toys for me. I remember how we went to "Leipzip", still old, on Leninsky. He bought German cars. I loved to play with them myself. "
3) He hammered in nails, drilled holes. He painted, sculpted. Made something like an air conditioner ... ".

"Didya, woo!"

"How they joke, when not yet two years old"

We play with plasticine.
- Let's make a sausage, - I say.
I rolled him a long sausage out of plasticine. Igor took it, opened his mouth wide, pretending that he wanted to bite off a piece, and he himself looked sideways, slyly at me. Noticing that my hand involuntarily reaches out to take this "sausage" away from him, he breaks into a smile.
And here is his favorite joke. He takes a plate from the table, raises it over his head and pretends that he wants to throw it on the floor in a big way. Seeing the look of horror on the face of those around him, he laughs loudly and, pleased with his joke, puts the plate on the table.

"The first story about the incident that happened"

One morning Petya brought Igor to us, and he quickly left: he was in a hurry somewhere. Not having time to undress, Igor began to repeat, somehow hot and worried:
- Dad, uncle, give me gasoline! Uncle, dad, no gasoline!
Seeing that we do not really understand him, he repeated these two phrases, sometimes only changing the order of the words. We, of course, realized that on the way Peter ran out of gas in the car and he asked the oncoming driver for some gas, but he did not give it. When Peter
arrived, he confirmed that it was exactly so.
Igor's conversation now resembles that of an Indian who knows a few words from the language of whites. However, an Indian has the mind of an adult, a great life experience, as well as knowledge of his own language, Igor has none of this. But he still copes with the task.

The story "I'm going!"

They bought him a tricycle of the tiniest caliber. I quickly learned to turn the pedals with my feet. Rolls along the asphalt path from the gate to the house. Suddenly I saw Tanya about twenty steps out onto the porch and how she would shout:
- Butterfly, be careful! I'm on my way!
Further the path was uneven. He says:
- The road is sloping.

Nikolai Nosov finishes the book about his grandson with the words of his preschooler grandson: "You and I are friends, grandpa!"... Here it is - the happiness of grandparents!

Nikolai Nosov died in Moscow on July 26, 1976. The writer was 68 years old. He was buried at the Kuntsevo cemetery in Moscow.

Nikolay Nosov: a short biography for children

It is possible to acquaint children with the biographies of writers and with the biography of Nikolai Nosov already at an older preschool age. For children, interesting and entertaining facts are important, how the writer comes up with a story (after all, children also compose stories and fairy tales), how he lived, and all the cases from the series "When ... I was little."

It is very good if you make a thematic exhibition of N. Nosov's works from your home books and books from the children's library. So that the child recognizes all the works he knows from the pictures and understands that they were written by the same writer. So that the kid gets to know the author's style, knows how differently you can tell about the world!

If possible, you can take from the library the same story by N. Nosov with illustrations by different artists and compare them. While you have such an exhibition at home, you will acquaint the kids with the life of this beloved writer.

Acquaintance with the biography educates the child not as a user of books, but as a creator, a talented, thoughtful reader. The preschooler learns from our story about the process of creativity and ... tries to "become a real writer" himself and dictate to his mother the first tales and stories he wrote. And this must be supported and must be written down. Who knows, maybe your baby has a talent for artistic words? After all, when Nikolai Nosov was small, he did not show his literary abilities in any way!

He came up with stories about those funny situations that he himself observed in life. For example, once such a story happened to his nephew. The boy was walking and saw a barrel of pickles behind a vegetable tent. He climbed into it, grabbed two cucumbers, and happily came to his mother with these cucumbers. What happened next - you already know from the story "Cucumbers". In the story, the cucumbers, the children took other people's vegetables not from the barrel, but from someone else's garden, and everything else is described in it as it was in life.
• The first story by Nikolai Nosov, which he composed, is the story "Zateyniki". It was even published in the well-known magazine Murzilka. Listen to this story with the children in the video below.
• Then Nikolai Nosov composed more children's stories. And it turned out to be a children's book. It was published by a children's publishing house. It includes many stories known to us: "Living Hat", "Mishkina's porridge", "Fantasy", "Gardeners", "Wonderful trousers", "Knock-knock-knock" and others.
• The son of Nikolai Nosov grew up, and along with this, new stories for his son and even novels appeared. After Nosov wrote the story "Vitya Maleev at school and at home," he decided that he would change his profession and become a children's writer. After that, he wrote many children's books, including our favorite fairy tales about Dunno.

At the end of the 90s, many new adventures of Dunno came out, written in bad language and having no literary value, because Dunno as a character was not copyrighted. They have nothing to do with the Nos dynasty.

It is interesting: The son of Nikolai Nosov, Pyotr Nikolayevich, is one of the masters of "cheerful photography", he is called "the virtuoso of humorous photography." Apparently, humor is an important feature of the entire Nosov dynasty :). The grandson of the writer Igor Petrovich Nosov is also engaged in photography. The writer's son and grandson even had a joint photo exhibition called "Quantums of Laughter" and took place in 2007. Igor Petrovich, grandson of Nikolai Nosov, wrote:

My grandfather did a lot of photography with me, who, before becoming famous in children's literature, worked as a director of educational and animation films for many years. And my father, a well-known photojournalist of ITAR-TASS, taught me, without exaggeration, all my life. Having passed such a home school of photography, at the age of 25, after studying at the philological faculty of the university and serving in the army, I decided to become a photojournalist and began working at the Novosti Press Agency, and later at ITAR-TASS. Collaborated with many newspapers, magazines, photo agencies.

In the creative duet of the Nosovs, there is also a lot of mischief, humor, kindness, the ability to see joy in the most ordinary moments of life. This is what we pass on to children and what becomes the hallmark of every dynasty! And what we can learn from Nikolai Nosov's fairy tales and stories for children.

The annotation to the exhibition of photographs of Nikolai Nosov's son and grandson reads as follows: " they teach everyone to peer at the world around us so that it becomes better and kinder, and a bright smile is a symbol of our, sometimes difficult, life "... Probably, these words very accurately convey the whole essence of the work of the Nosov family for people and for small children!

What books by Nikolai Nosov to buy for children?

I am always asked by the readers of the site to suggest high-quality editions of books for children. Therefore, after conducting a "reconnaissance" among the modern editions of N. Nosov, I end this article with the following recommendations for books for the home library:

— I do not advise buy books by Nikolai Nosov from the Makhaon publishing house, since in many cases the author's original text of the writer has been greatly changed (moreover, it is shortened, phrases have been rewritten, fragments are missing, ie the text has been changed for the worse). Therefore, when reading "Nosov's stories" to children from the books of this publishing house, in fact, you are reading them the words of another person altogether - the editor.

— The author's text of Nikolai Nosov in modern editions is preserved by the publishing house Melik-Pashaev in the series “Thin masterpieces for the little ones”. They were published with classic illustrations by the wonderful artist Ivan Semyonov, formerly the editor-in-chief of the Vesyolye Kartinki magazine. Indeed, these books educate the child's artistic taste, and they have one drawback - this is a rather high price.

- Also preserves the author's text and publishes works by N. Nosov with excellent illustrations by the Eksmo publishing house: the book "Living Hat" in the book series "My Friends" and a book of stories with illustrations by the same artist I. Semenov "Fantasies". And the price for these Eksmo books is affordable for any family.

- Perfectly produces stories by N. Nosov, publishing house "Rech" (series "My mother's favorite book") and publishing house "Oblaka" (story "Karasik" with illustrations by E. Afanasyeva)

— Trilogy about Dunno. A collection of classic black-and-white illustrations by A. Laptev has been released. This is the book "All About Dunno and His Friends" by the Azbuka publishing house (2014 edition). This is a classic from our childhood.

All books, illustrations in them and reviews can be viewed in the Labyrinth here:

And that's not all list of children's works by Nosov loved by many generations.

How did Nikolai Nosov become a children's writer?

Nikolay Nikolaevich Nosov was born in Kiev, in the family of an actor. At the age of 15, he entered a concrete plant as a laborer. In 1927 he began to study at the Kiev Art Institute. Two years later, he moved to the Moscow Institute of Cinematography, and then worked as a film director - filming educational and animated films. During the war, Nosov was awarded the Order of the Red Star for the creation of military-technical films.

Which parent did not have to compose poems, fairy tales, stories for their children? Nikolai Nikolaevich also had to do this: he had a boy growing up. The experiments were successful. In 1938, Nosov's story appeared in the Murzilka magazine "Entertainers"... But he became a professional writer only in 1945, when his first book was published.

"Knock-Knock!"- with this heading, Nosov kind of knocked on the door of great literature for little ones. The subtitle "Funny stories" was an application for the birth of a humorist writer. Here we first get to know Mishka, whom we later meet in a whole cycle of small works by Nosov: "Gardeners", "Mishkina's porridge", "Telephone" and others. This boy always tries to do something good, but does not commensurate this desire with his own strengths and skills. Hence, situations arise that cause laughter, but not condemning, but benevolent. Nosov believes that "humor is ridicule with a touch of sympathy." Others are also very popular with readers. Nosov's works for children: "A Step", "About the Turnip", "Dreamers", "The Adventures of Tolya Klyukvin", "Under One Roof".

Children's works of N. Nosov

The story "Merry family"

In 1949, the first story of Nosov was published - "Merry family" ... In many ways, it is still close to those stories of the writer, where the images of the guys who called themselves "Mishka and I" were developed. Friends still do not know the rest: "Such is our character with Mishka - we definitely need something to do." At first, the guys quickly move from one hobby to another: "The bear is such a person - he absolutely needs everything to be useful." But the boy thinks about the benefits not for himself, but for everyone. In his reflections on the benefits of incubators on a state farm, one senses a social approach. This means that children need to be helped to find exactly such activities that would inspire them with a great goal. Only thanks to this goal, Mishka and his friend were able to raise chickens in a homemade incubator for almost a month (a long time for restless boys!)

Throughout the development of the plot, the author suggests that you need to tackle a big business together, as a team. We see how in boys, especially in Mishka, who was so careless not long ago, a sense of duty is maturing, a sense of responsibility for their mistakes.

The story "Diary of Kolya Sinitsyn"

In the story "Kolya Sinitsyn's Diary" it is also said about the desire of the guys to do a generally useful business. In contrast to "The Merry Family" in this book, the guys from the very beginning work together and consciously look for "such a job that will be useful." The form of the diary allowed the writer to convey the thoughts of his hero. They contain a lot of naivety, colored by the author's humor, and at the same time, there is a lot of moral purity inherent in pioneers.

Following the example of Nosov's characters, many of the children began to build incubators and breed bees. The writer V. Kataev tells about the devastation caused in the house by his little son, who, having read "The Merry Family", decided to follow the example of Kolya and Misha. Readers are attracted to Nosov's stories by the enthusiasm of the characters, the rapid development of the plot, the absence of long descriptions, which, as N.K.Krupskaya noted, are unacceptable for children 8-13 years old. Many guys tell Nosov that they themselves, following the example of Kolya Sinitsyn, began to write diaries, and some even ask how to publish them.

After reading these stories, parents will truly understand how important the support of adults is for children. The old beekeeper from "Kolya Sinitsyn's Diary" did not scold the boys who accidentally ran into his apiary, but helped them. Kolya reflects on this: “What a kind grandfather turned out to be! He not only promised to give us bees, but also fulfilled his promise. " This is a rebuke to those adults who thoughtlessly break the word given to the children. “And I also had joy today,” Kolya writes after a while in his diary, “my mom and dad came to the apiary and looked at our bees.” Here is an example of how important it is to delve into the interests of your children, to encourage them with your attention!

The story "Vitya Maleev at school and at home"

If in the books "A Merry Family" and "Kolya Sinitsyn's Diary" Nosov shows the development of interests and a sense of collectivism in the process of extracurricular work, then his third and most significant story is "Vitya Maleev at school and at home" (1951) - mainly devoted to educational work. She was awarded the State Prize and was among the best in the competition of fiction books for children, held by the Ministry of Education of the RSFSR.

... Inseparable friends Vitya Maleev and Kostya Shishkin love school, want to study well, and grow up as real people. “You dream of something wonderful,” thinks Vitya, “and you want to grow up as soon as possible, become strong and courageous, perform various feats and heroism ...” There is nothing surprising in these dreams. They are determined by our entire system, which opens up clear prospects for children from the very first years of school life. Vitya clearly understands why he should study, but the trouble is that he does not know how to concentrate - the temptation to play football turns out to be stronger than his still fragile will.

In the books of Soviet writers before, there were images of children who, under the influence of the teacher and the whole class, became successful. But we did not see how this process took place in the minds of the Losers themselves. Nosov managed to look into the world of thoughts and feelings of his hero. “The discovery made by Vitya Maleev, having solved the problem on his own for the first time,” said S. Ya. Marshak at the II Congress of Writers, “is not only the discovery of Vitia, but also of the author himself. It is not so easy to show why the incomprehensible becomes suddenly understandable, how considerations depend on the imagination. "

The process of correction for Kostya is much more difficult. He is less able than Vitya to analyze his actions, to be critical of them. Kostya even stops going to school and, deceiving his mother, pretends to be sick. It seems to him that it is easier to perform in the circus arena than to write a dictation. And although Vitya is experiencing remorse, he still hides the truth from the teacher, from the whole class. To act otherwise, he thinks, will not be comradely. But soon Vitya realized that a real pioneer should not hide his friend's bad deeds, but help him to improve. The pages describing how Maleev deals with Shishkin, how they, despite the first setbacks, achieve success, are especially interesting in the story.

In the words of Lev Kassil, "educators will find in Nosov's story a lot of things that will be useful in their work." Let the parents think about how Kostya's mother failed to correctly direct her son's hobbies and inspired him that he had no will. And Aunt Zina kept threatening to “take on him, check his studies, but every time she forgot to do it”. The example of Vitya's parents is also instructive. The mother scolded her son every time for the fact that he sat down late for lessons, but did not help him to properly allocate his time. And his father, undertaking to help the boy with arithmetic, simply solved the problem for him, and explained so impatiently that Vitya did not want to contact him anymore.

The book "Vitya Maleev at school and at home" was published 30 times in the first three years. Hundreds of letters about the children’s favorite story are kept in the House of Children's Books.

Story-tale "The Adventures of Dunno"

N. Nosov says that when discussing his books, children often say: there can be no full-fledged school collective without friendship, and girls complain about boys who often behave arrogantly towards them. This topic is mainly devoted to the story-fairy tale. "The Adventures of Dunno and His Friends" ... But why did the writer decide to resort to fantasy? He explains that "the very form of a fairy tale, as a work telling about fictional events, is close to play in its amusement, which arouses the interest of a child who is always willing to play." As usual in the works of Nosov, the main character of the new book - Dunno - is endowed with shortcomings. He is inquisitive, active, but he does not know how to work, he does not have enough patience for this. Striving for fame, this shorty does not even neglect deception. Dunno is being re-educated.

Fascinating episodes of Nosov's new fairy tale "Dunno in a sunny city" says that good deeds should be done disinterestedly, that, having advantages, you should use them deliberately, otherwise you will harm others. The pictures of the sunny city are clearly directed towards the future.
