The best book for early reading is undoubtedly a fairy tale, told briefly and clearly, with bright, easy-to-understand pictures.
The tale of the cunning fox, the timid hare, his hapless protectors—the wolf, the bull, the bear, and the heroic cockerel—with illustrations by the greatest master of children's illustration, Yuri Vasnetsov, is read and shown to children from a very early age.
The artist created expressive and memorable characters. The thrifty and hardworking hare stores cabbage and carrots for the winter and builds a warm hut with an axe; but the fox, despite her resourceful wit, miscalculates: instead of a warm house made of popular prints, she builds herself a "crystal palace" of snow and ice.
Vasnetsov creates an alluring fairytale world around the main characters, which, thanks to the additional details, feels truly real. These include huts, a stove, and smoke from the chimney; the sheepskin coats worn by the characters, the felt boots on the bunny's paws, a rowan tree laden with large berries, and household items such as a shovel, a ladder, and a basket. No less expressive are the bunny's hapless helpers—the wolf, the bull, and the bear. But the brave cockerel with a real saber on his shoulder is especially beautiful.
These drawings captivate children, focus their attention, help them learn new words and images, and evoke an emotional response.
This book is recommended for children from the first year of life, allowing them to repeatedly view the beautiful, colorful illustrations, as well as read and discuss the story with the help of adults.
