It is noticed that Marshak's poems for children are saturated with fire. It's all about the fact that in early childhood, the boy and his family experienced a fire in their own house. The writer said that his first vivid memory from childhood is the fire that engulfed the curtains, his mother, quickly and excitedly dressing him, an incomprehensible feeling of some very deep fear. In Marshak's poems we will meet fire more than once. After all, he always treated it himself with caution and tried to convey this wariness and attentiveness to children.
Indeed, the theme of fire, fire - one of the most attractive and mesmerizing for children. In their understanding the fireman is the most heroic profession, and the fire engine is created for dangerous and noble adventures. That's why S. Marshak's book "Fire" with illustrations by V. Konashevich was published as many as 28 times, starting from 1923. It has not become outdated, has not left the stage and continued to live in old and new pictures of its best illustrator Vladimir Konashevich. Before you is the last updated version by the authors, which came out in 1952. Now the action of the book unfolds against the backdrop of a modern city: fire engines have replaced fire sleds, and multi-storey buildings have grown in place of one-storey houses. Re-illustrating "Fire", Konashevich long and carefully looked at the work of the fire department in Leningrad, questioned the firefighters, scrupulously sketched new machines. But both in the text and in the picture there was a curious detail that has long disappeared from modern firefighting, the meaning of which is worth explaining to children: by the number of signal balls, which the sentry raised above the calancha, judged the intensity of the fire and the approximate direction of the fire. Easy rhyme, fascinating plot, expressive colorful drawings allow to consider "Fire" Marshak and Konashevich unsurpassed masterpiece of literature "for little ones". This edition of "Fire" (as, however, all of Marshak's children's works with illustrations by V.M. Konashevich) is a must-have for all children and their parents.
