The book includes more than sixty fairy tale works by the writer, poet and screenwriter Sergei Grigorievich Kozlov (1939-2010), the author of the widely known and beloved fairy tale "The Hedgehog in the Fog". S. G. Kozlov's fairy tale prose is unique; his fairy tales have been translated into many languages of the world. The edition is decorated with drawings by the talented contemporary artist and illustrator of children's books Anahit Gardyan.
The famous director Yuri Borisovich Norstein would not have made his famous cartoon "The Hedgehog in the Fog" if he had not relied on the text of Sergey Grigorievich Kozlov (1939-2010) - the author of the well-known and beloved fairy tale of the same name. Sergey Grigorievich's fairy tale prose is unique; his works have been translated into the languages of different nations of the world, although many of our compatriots are familiar with his characters just from cartoons. Who has not seen the story about the Turtle, who sang to the Lion cub the song "I'm lying in the sun..."? And after all, these are also the heroes of fairy tales by Sergei Kozlov. Cartoonists have long paid attention to his work: his characters and simple, it would seem, plots so and ask for the screen. The future writer was born in the summer of 1939 in Moscow and began to write poetry at school. Then there was a study at the Literary Institute, and fairy tales Kozlov began to compose, having reached thirty years old. Before that, the novice writer managed to work as a turner, a teacher of singing, a stoker and a tour guide. Sergei Grigorievich knew how to talk to children, explain to them in simple words a variety of things. For example, in 1976 in the publishing house "Children's Literature" published his book about the river: it was a story about its flow, banks, steamboats, buoys, bridges and locks. And yet the main talent of Kozlov was that he was able to speak in his tales to children and adults about the most important things in life - about friendship, happiness, love, loyalty. Kozlov's charming fairy tales in this book are harmoniously complemented by illustrations by the talented contemporary artist Anahit Gardyan. She was born in December 1967 in Yerevan and graduated from the Armenian Pedagogical Institute in 1992. However, the craving for the fairy-tale world, which charmed Anahit in her childhood, led her to the group of animators of "Armenfilm" studio. Having gained experience from her friends who created cartoons, Anahit decided to try her hand at book illustrations. And she succeeded! All fairy-tale characters in her drawings are so lively, emotional, direct and cheerful that one wants to believe in the reality of their existence. Gardyan has become a recognized master of book illustration. Since 2000 she lives in Moscow, cooperating with a number of book publishers. Having polished the book, the reader will be convinced at first sight that the colorful and kind illustrations of Anahit Gardyan form a whole with the texts of Sergey Kozlov.
