Every gifted writer has a treasured storeroom where his childhood memories are kept, leaving an indelible mark on his soul. In moments of severe trials, the writer draws inspiration and knowledge of life from this storeroom and generously shares everything with his readers.
Valentin Kataev has had his share of many shocks. He is a witness to two revolutions, a participant in the Civil and Great Patriotic Wars - all this is vividly and thoroughly captured in his stories, short stories and even fairy tales.
Keenly and carefully noting the details of the existence of his heroes, their characters and destinies, Kataev always writes about the big things: about true friendship, devotion and love, about the beauty of a great feat created - on an equal basis with adults - by simple girls and boys.
The magnificent illustrations for the book were created by classics of book graphics Isaak Grinstein, Konstantin Rotov, as well as masters of painting Orest Vereisky, Yuri Rakutin, Veniamin Losin, Viktor Chizhikov.
