Analysis of the works of K.I. Chukovsky

Fairy tale "Crocodile"

History of creation

Once Chukovsky had to compile the almanac "Firebird". It was an ordinary editorial job, but it was she who was the reason for the birth of a children's writer. Having written his first children's tales "Chicken", "Doctor" and "Dog Kingdom" for the almanac, Chukovsky appeared in a completely new light. His work has not gone unnoticed. A.M. Gorky decided to publish collections of children's works and asked Chukovsky to write a poem for children for the first collection. Chukovsky was at first very worried that he would not be able to write, since he had never done this before. But chance helped. Returning by train to St. Petersburg with his sick son, he told him a story about a crocodile to the sound of wheels. The child listened very carefully. Several days passed, Korney Ivanovich had already forgotten about that episode, and the son remembered everything that his father said then by heart. Thus was born the fairy tale "Crocodile", published in 1917. Since then, Chukovsky has become a favorite children's writer.
Subject

Freedom.

(Returning from a trip to Petrograd to his native Africa, Crocodile Krokodilovich calls on his brothers to rise to fight against the enslaving people, telling about the fate of his nephew, who recently died in the Petrograd Zoological Garden, having managed to say before his death:

^ I don't curse the executioners

Neither their chains nor their scourges

But you, traitor friends,

Damn I send!

You are so powerful, so strong -

Boas, buffaloes, elephants, -

We are every day and every hour

From our prisons they called you

And they waited, believed that here

Liberation will come.)

Idea

With the help of a fairy tale text, written as if for children and at the same time not only for them, to critically analyze reality itself.
motives

A striking motif, passing through the entire text of the work, was the motif "liberation will come." (The fighters languishing in captivity appeal to their comrades-in-arms who remained at large with a call to fight for freedom. The Soviet reader of Chukovsky's poem could not help but see this hidden parody, the poet's sarcastic grin at the canonized images of Bolshevism).

Scary and funny motif. (For example, the "terrible story" about the "girl Lyalechka", ending with her miraculous rescue by the "daring hero" Vanya Vasilchikov).
Content

Encouraged by the call of the Crocodile, who told his African friends about the fate of his unfortunate nephew who died in the Petrograd zoo, the animals decide to go to war against "damned Petrograd", where "our brothers are sitting behind bars in captivity." The animals capture the city, the "crocodile horde" victoriously enters it and the occupation of Petrograd begins. Only the “valiant Vanya Vasilchikov” was not afraid of the “crocodile hordes” and with the help of a toy pistol the boy disperses the army of invaders. However, the animals take as a hostage the girl Lyalya, who was walking along Tavricheskaya Street. The animals offer people a compromise - to return Lyalya in exchange for the release of all the "captive animals" and their "furry children". Vanya Vasilchikov, negotiating with the animal army on behalf of people, recognizes the demands of animals as justified:

^ To your people

I give freedom

I give you freedom!

I will break the cells

I'll break the chains...

Why, however, is the boy Vanya Vasilchikov the winner of the Crocodile and the "crocodile hordes"? Because, apparently, Vanya is the only person in the poem who can speak the same language with animals.

When the policeman turns to the Crocodile with the words that "crocodiles are not allowed to walk here," the Crocodile, obviously not understanding the words addressed to him, swallows the policeman "with boots and a saber." But one has only to speak to Vanya Vasilchikov, as the words uttered by this lad, “You, the villain, devour people ...”, make a stunning impression on the Crocodile, he immediately ceases to be aggressive and submits to the lad. The crocodile did not expect that among the population of Petrograd there would be a person who spoke the same language as him. This extraordinary gift, not peculiar to people, forces the Crocodile to obey unconditionally.
images

Petrograd in Chukovsky's poem it ceases to be a human city, it is now a large, self-governing menagerie. Installed in the city inhuman power.

Crocodile. Both revolutionary and reactionary reputation were combined in his image. His image is a kind of metaphor for the state.

^ Vanya Vasilchikov, a hero can save the whole nation from a villain.

People, depicted as cowardly, himself not knowing how to find salvation from the current situation.
, which Chukovsky uses in children's works are based on the commandments written by him for children's poets.

Among them graphic, those. in every stanza, and sometimes in every couplet, there must be material for the artist, because the thinking of younger children is characterized by imagery:

^ Looked Crocodile

And swallowed the watchdog.

I swallowed it along with the collar.

According to Chukovsky, verbal painting should be lyrical:

^ He runs into the tram

Everyone shouts: - Ai-ai-ai!

And running

somersault,

Home,

At the corners:

- Help! Save! Have mercy!

Increased musicality of poetic speech, smoothness, fluidity of sounds:

Only Totoshenko,

^ Only Kokoshenka

Didn't give

Crocodile

Nothing.

see examples above.

^ see examples above.

Literary allusion

Chukovsky describes the Crocodile's story about the impressions of the trip to Petrograd as follows:

^ And the sad Crocodile got up

And slowly spoke:

- Find out, dear friends,

My soul is shaken

I saw so much grief there

That even you, Hippo,

And then he would howl like a puppy,

Whenever I could see him.

There are our brothers, as in hell,

In the zoological garden.
And now a quote from M.Yu. Lermontov's poem "Mtsyri":

…^ And, having proudly listened, the patient

I got up, gathering the rest of my strength,

And for a long time he said:

"You listen to my confession

Came here, thank you.

Everything is better in front of someone

Lighten my chest with words;

But I did not harm people,

And so my deeds

It's a little good for you to know -

Can you tell your soul?

I lived little, and lived in captivity.
Critics about the fairy tale "Crocodile"

"... in Chukovsky and his associates, we know books that develop superstition and fears ("Barmaley", "My Dodyr", "Wonder Tree"), praising philistinism and kulak accumulation ("Fly-Tsokotuha", "Domok") books that misrepresent the world of animals and insects ("Crocodile" and "Cockroach"), as well as books that are clearly counter-revolutionary in terms of international parenting."

(K. Sverdlov "We call for the fight against" Chukovism "// Preschool education, 1929, No. 4).
N.K. Krupskaya devoted a separate article to the poem "Crocodile", in which she exposed the politically harmful content of Chukovsky's work. The article by N. K. Krupskaya contains many amusing absurdities. First of all, N.K. Krupskaya notes that there are too few children's books that tell children about animals in general and about crocodiles in particular. Therefore, N.K. Krupskaya considered it possible to reproach Chukovsky for not satisfying the curiosity of children who would like to learn more about crocodiles. N.K. Krupskaya lacked information of a zoological nature in the poem - where the crocodile lives, what it eats, etc. N. Krupskaya writes as if a book on popular zoology was expected from Chukovsky. “Instead of a story about the life of a crocodile, they [children] will hear incredible nonsense about him,” N.K. Krupskaya concluded.

As for the description of the habits, character and appearance of the crocodile, it would be difficult even for such a talent as Chukovsky to describe this animal with greater brightness and artistry than the “father of history” Herodotus of Halicarnassus did: “Of all living creatures known to us, this animal is from the very the smallest becomes the largest. After all, crocodile eggs are slightly larger than goose eggs and, according to the size of the egg, the cub hatches small. When it grows up, it reaches a length of 17 cubits and even more. The crocodile has pig eyes, large teeth with fangs protruding outwards in accordance with the size of the body. This is the only animal that does not naturally have a language. His lower jaw is immobile. Only the crocodile moves the upper jaw to the lower one, which is what distinguishes it from all other animals. It also has sharp claws and scaly hard skin on its back. Blind in the water, the crocodile, however, sees perfectly on land. Since he lives in the water, his mouth is always full of leeches inside. All other birds and animals avoid the crocodile: only trochil is his friend, as he renders him services. So, when the crocodile comes out of the water onto land and opens its mouth (usually as soon as the west wind blows), then this bird penetrates into its mouth and pecks out the leeches. The crocodile is pleased with these services, and does not harm the trochil.

(Herodotus. History in nine books. Translated by G.A. Stratonovsky. Under the general editorship of S.L. Utchenko. L., 1972. P.101)

We have given such a lengthy quotation because this excerpt from the second book of Herodotus' History, which tells about Egyptian crocodiles, is a complete masterpiece, by which it is quite possible to judge the literary talent possessed by the founder of historical science.

Another reproach addressed to Chukovsky by N.K. Krupskaya is already directly political in nature. The people in the poem "Crocodile" are depicted as cowardly, the people do not know how to escape from the Crocodile, and only one brave man Vanya Vasilchikov finds the courage to fight this invincible monster. Indeed, Chukovsky forgot the Bolshevik postulate that "neither god, nor tsar, nor hero" will give the people "deliverance" from tyranny, in the poem "Crocodile" all the hope of the passive masses is placed on the hero Vanya. “This is already,” emphasizes N.K. Krupskaya, “not at all an innocent, but an extremely vicious image ...”

(Krupskaya N.K. About Chukovsky's "Crocodile" // Book for children. 1928. No. 2. P.14)

The people, frightened of the Crocodile, is really the most perfect slander! .. Further, Krupskaya was alarmed by the description of the life of the Crocodile family in Africa, she came to the conclusion that the Crocodile and his family live in distant Africa - Oh, God! - like the commoners. "The tradesman-crocodile" _ 6, - Krupskaya draws a deadly conclusion. But this is not the worst, because the Crocodile, in addition, turns out to be a monarchist, and, accepting the hippopotamus king in his house

... Crocodile on the doorstep

Kisses the guest's feet:

"Tell me, lord, which star

Showed you the way here? _ 7

The monarchical views of the Crocodile are thus proven. “I think,” wrote N.K. Krupskaya, “our guys don’t need to give Crocodile ... because it’s bourgeois dregs” motifs alien to modernity are woven into the poem: the king and the master of beasts, the Christmas tree, the policeman ... "_ 9 Subsequently, the Soviet literary critic L. Kon wrote about Chukovsky's "Crocodile" that "released as a separate edition in 1919, when the Soviet people heroically ... fought against the White Guard and foreign intervention, this book turned out to be simply hostile and harmful"

(Krupskaya N.K. About Chukovsky's "Crocodile" // Book for children. 1928. No. 2. P. 16)

It turns out that at that glorious time, when the Bolsheviks smashed the White Guard and the interventionists, Chukovsky, with his "Crocodile", greatly interfered with the Bolshevik victory.

The outstanding Russian literary critic Yuri Tynyanov wrote that Chukovsky's "Crocodile" certainly opens a new era in children's literature. In children's books of the 19th century, Yu. Tynyanov wrote, one can see “strange children: in adult costumes, with disproportionately large heads, midgets, dwarfs huddle at the knees of their mothers. Their smiles are languid, their eyes are lowered[…]… children's age, apparently, was not yet discovered in the then children's literature.

(Tynyanov Yu. Korney Chukovsky// Children's Literature. 1939. No. 4. P. 24)

"Crocodile" not only went against this tradition described by Yuri Tynyanov to depict a child as a small adult - a midget, he generally "discovered" children's age for literature. In "Crocodile" there was no place for the image of a well-groomed, obedient, domestic child - "mama's boy."

Zinaida Stolitsa on the pages of the pedological collection, recognizing the poem "Crocodile" as anti-pedagogical, noted that "the motives alien to modernity are woven into the poem: the king and master of beasts, the Christmas tree, the policeman ...".

(Stolitsa Z. Elements of a fairy tale in the work of K. Chukovsky "The Adventure of Crocodile Krokodilovich" and the reactions of preschoolers // Fairy Tale and Child. Pedological collection. M., 1928. P. 91)
Fairy tale "Cockroach"

Subject power and terror.

Idea: 1. in the world of "stupid people" you can create an icon from any cockroach, and then "break your forehead", beating her bows (in the fairy tale, Chukovsky already has a premonition that the "daring Sparrow", in passing, liberated the country from the tyranny of the Cockroach with a raid , will quickly take his place: painfully accommodating people surround him, ready for anything, ready for anything: "donkeys sing glory to him by notes, / Goats sweep the road with their beards. / Rams, rams / Beat drums!").

2. can be conveyed by a saying: the devil is not so terrible as he is painted. "Not so much the demons are our enemies, but we ourselves are ourselves, and through themselves they overcome us. Moreover, believers who are afraid to live by personal experience and common sense, overcome even more often than unbelievers, who are accustomed to relying on their own strength and experience.The winner-Sparrow comes, solving the problem quickly and simply: "I took and pecked a cockroach. And then, after the general stormy joy, gratitude, gratitude and jubilation, a new form of idolization arises - no longer fear, but exaltation, exaltation of the Hero:

Donkeys sing his glory according to the notes, Goats sweep the road with their beards. The rams, the rams are beating the drums...
Content. This is not about a single hero, but about the entire animal kingdom, where suddenly, as a result of an unexpectedly unexpected coup, power has changed. Harmless animals went about their usual ridiculous city affairs ("in a car", "on a tram", "on a bicycle"), as: "Suddenly from the gateway / A terrible giant, / Red-haired and mustachioed / Ta-ra-kan! / Cockroach, Cockroach , Cockroach!".
images

Cockroach - the embodiment of evil and the source of fears.

Sparrow - savior of the weak.

Beasts- the personification of a society intimidated by the ruler.
motives

Neighborhood scary and funny:

^ The bears rode

By bike.

And behind them a cat

Backwards.

And behind him mosquitoes

On a balloon.

They ride and laugh

Gingerbread chews.

Exemptions:

He took and pecked the cockroach,

There is no giant.

Serve the giant got it,

And his mustache was gone.

Good and Evil: opposition of the Cockroach and animals, Sparrow.
Author's position

Undoubtedly, the author's sympathy for bunnies, bears, crocodiles, elephants - all these cowards who were afraid of cockroach whiskers. Moreover, it is frankly declared already in the cheerful parade of animals with which the fairy tale begins. Thus, the first thing the writer begins with is a declaration of sympathy for the heroes, who will later become victims of the evil Cockroach
Visual and expressive means rely on his precepts for children's poets.

Among them graphic:

The bears rode

By bike.

And behind them a cat

Backwards.

Musicality of poetic speech, smoothness, fluidity of sounds:

^ The hippos got scared

They whispered: “What are you, what are you!

Get out of here!

No matter how bad we are!”

Rhymes in poems for children should be placed at the closest possible distance:see examples above.

The poems are not cluttered with adjectives. Since the child is really only concerned with action in literature, the rapid alternation of events is important: see examples above.

Those words that serve as rhymes should be the main carriers of the meaning of the whole phrase:

^ Poor, poor animals!

Howling, crying, roaring!

In every den

And in every cave

They curse the evil glutton.
allusions

The literary origin of this fabulous monster - a cockroach - is undoubted. In Dostoevsky's novel "Demons" there is a character whose name is Captain Lebyadkin. He is a graphomaniac poet and from time to time recites his incoherent verses. Once he reads to Varvara Petrovna the "play" "Cockroach", which at first he presents as "Krylov's fable".

"There lived a cockroach in the world, / A cockroach from childhood, / And then it fell into a glass, / Full of fly-eating ... / A cockroach took the place, / The flies grumbled. / "Our glass is very full," - / They shouted to Jupiter. / But so far they were shouting, / Nikifor came up, / The most noble old man ... "The" Fable "of Captain Lebyadkin ends with Nikifor (who "depicts nature") "takes a glass and, despite the cry, throws all the comedy into the tub, and flies , and a cockroach, which should have been done a long time ago."
Critics about the fairy tale "Cockroach"

Chukovsky in "Cockroach" tells, as it were, two fairy tales at the same time. One is satirical, the other is not. In doing so, he relies on two different folklore traditions. The first of them, as noted by I.P. Lupanova, comes from Russian folk tales about animals (such as "The Cat and Wild Animals")

(I.P. Lupanova "Half a century". M., "Det. Lit.", 1969, p. 100).

The second is connected with the circle of epics about the struggle of the hero with the monster (especially with the epic about Ilya and Idolishche). Indeed, the Idolishche and the Cockroach are very similar to each other, both of them are evaluated primarily as "strangers". (By the way, it is characteristic that in the epics of this type Idolishche also does not meet, as V. Ya. Propp points out, no resistance:

“The idol approaches the walls of Kyiv, Vladimir goes out to meet him, bows and calls him to the feast. Thus begins the humiliation of Vladimir.

(V.Ya. Propp. Russian heroic epos. M., Goslitizdat, 1958, p. 227).

A bold attempt to re-read the famous fairy tale by Korney Chukovsky is made by Mikhail Elzon in the article “When and about whom was “Cockroach” written?” Of course, about Stalin and his henchmen, the critic is convinced. Here it is not new. Talk about the deep insight and courage of Chukovsky, who as early as 1922 saw not only the weakness of the mustachioed villain-dictator, but also foresaw his end, has been going on since the 30s. And perhaps even earlier. By the way, they usually made the writer laugh. An elementary comparison of fairy tale lines with the deeds of quite specific political figures is an occupation that is generally uncomplicated, sometimes witty, but has nothing to do with literature. I would also like to remind you that a real, and not a fairy-tale dictator, raised among native aspens, did not fall as a result of a sudden collective insight. And no one drove him from the throne.

Fairy tale "Aibolit"

Subject great love for animals and the glorification of a difficult and difficult, but at the same time very interesting profession - a doctor (a doctor who treats people and animals).
Idea healing of poor, sick animals living in distant Africa, by the kind doctor Aibolit.
motives

Expectations of healing (“Come, doctor, / To Africa soon

/ And save, doctor, / Our babies!

Good and Evil:

^ But here is the sea in front of them -

Raging, noisy in space.

And there is a high wave in the sea.

Now she will swallow Aibolit.

"Oh, if I drown

If I go to the bottom

What will become of them, the sick,

With my forest animals?

But here comes the whale:

"Sit on me, Aibolit,

And like a big ship

I'll take you forward!"
images

Aibolit- the personification of goodness.

Beasts- the personification of those awaiting salvation.
Visual and expressive means

Creating fairy tales for kids, K. I. Chukovsky directly followed his commandments. The fairy tale is written in a simple children's language, emotional, accessible to children, easily perceived, but at the same time it has a great educational value.

Consider a fairy tale based on Chukovsky's commandments:

^ 1. Complied with graphic and imagery.

“But here is the sea in front of him -

Raging, noisy in space.

And a high wave goes to the sea,

Now she will swallow Aibolit ...

But here comes the whale:

"Sit on me, Aibolit,

And like a big ship

I'll take you ahead!"

^ 2. The highest change of images

"We live in Zanzibar,

In the Kalahari and the Sahara

On Mount Fernando - Po,

Where hippo walks - popo

Along the wide Limpopo.

^ 3. Painting is lyrical, many verbs and prepositions give a feeling of constant movement.

“And the fox came to Aibolit ...

And the watchdog came to Aibolit ...

And the hare came running

And she screamed: “Ai, ai!

My bunny got hit by a tram!

He ran down the path

And his legs were cut

And now he's sick and lame

My little hare!”

Together with his characters, I also want to do something, act somehow, help in some way.

^ 4. Mobility and changeability of rhythm.

“But, look, some kind of bird

Closer and closer through the air rushes.

On the bird, look, Aibolit is sitting

And he waves his hat and shouts loudly:

"Long live dear Africa!"

^ 5. Musicality of poetic speech.

“Here is Hippo, here is Popo,

Hippo - popo, Hippo - popo!

Here comes the Hippo.

It comes from Zanzibar

He goes to Kilimanjaro -

And he screams, and he sings:

“Glory, glory to Aibolit!

Glory to the good doctors!”

The song of the hippopotamus sounds like an anthem for doctors.

^ 6. Rhymes are in the immediate neighborhood.

"And the shark Karakula

Right eye winked

And laughs, and laughs,

It's like someone is tickling her."

^ 7. Each line has a life of its own.

“Good doctor Aibolit!

He sits under a tree.

Come to him for treatment.

Both the cow and the wolf

And a bug, and a worm,

And a bear!”

""What? Really

Are your kids sick? -

" Yes Yes Yes! They have angina

scarlet fever, cholera,

diphtheria, appendicitis,

Malaria and bronchitis!

Come soon

Good Doctor Aibolit!”

The rhymes of words are the main carriers of the meaning of the phrase.

^ 9. Poems are not cluttered with adjectives.

"Okay, okay, I'll run,

I will help your children.

But where do you live?

On a mountain or in a swamp?

^ 10. Movement prevails, the main rhythm is trochee.

“And Aibolit got up, Aibolit ran,

He runs through the fields, through the forests, through the meadows.

And only one word repeats Aibolit:

"Limpopo, Limpopo, Limpopo!"

^ 11. There is a game.

And Aibolit runs to the hippos,

And slaps them on the tummies

And all in order

Gives you chocolate

And puts and puts thermometers for them!

^ 12. Poetry for children - poetry for adults.

"Ten nights Aibolit

Doesn't eat, doesn't drink, doesn't sleep

ten nights in a row

He heals the unfortunate animals

And puts and puts thermometers for them.

^ 13. Frequent repetitions give great emotionality to the tale.

"And then the ostriches

They squeal like piglets

Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry

Poor ostriches!

And they have measles and diphtheria,

And they have smallpox and bronchitis,

And their head hurts

And my throat hurts."

Thus, we see that K.I. Chukovsky perfectly used his commandments in the fairy tale "Aibolit".
Critics about the fairy tale "Aibolit"

“Aibolit is a children's utopia, consisting in the fact that a doctor who does not sleep for days and nights can help everyone. And everyone helps him: "furry wolves", a whale and eagles, because Dr. Aibolit is the embodiment of absolute Kindness and humanism. "So he cured them, / Limpopo! / So he cured the sick, / Limpopo!" Chukovsky finds his own alternative recipe for "collectivization" - kindness, sensitivity and responsiveness to other people's pain, empathy for it. But Aibolit does not succeed in everything: he manages to fight only with diseases, but not with violence, dictatorship, cruelty. After all, as we remember from "Barmaley", having met with a real and indomitable absolute Evil, he is defeated by it (at least for a while). And in general, a "good doctor" cannot cure society of evil either with chocolates or eggnog! Despite the "happy end", the fairy tale "Aibolit" is ultimately sad: Aibolit is one for all, one for all "sweet Africa"! As soon as he freezes in the snow, drowns and "goes to the bottom", "does not reach" and "an abyss on the way", - and already to the question: "What will become of them, the sick, / With my forest animals?" - no answer. Because there is no other Aibolit. The hope of salvation is fragile and depends on a mass of accidents that cannot be foreseen.

(I.V. Kondakov "Stupid absurdities" by Korney Chukovsky: text, context, intertext. // Social sciences and modernity. 2003 No. 1. pp. 5-7).

Alexey Tarkhanov in his article "Barmaley and Aibolit" traces the features of the relationship between his heroes - Aibolit and Barmaley.

“Aibolit is known from several works, but he meets his implacable rival Barmaley in the poem “Barmaley” and in the story “Doctor Aibolit” (according to Gyu Lofting). Already in the very desire to give each of the heroes by name, an understanding of their certain equivalence is manifested. The appearance of the characters is very important. Barmaley is incredibly mustachioed. The connection between hairiness and virility, which is obvious and fixed in folklore, is exhaustively manifested in this image. On the contrary, Aibolit with the beard of an elderly professor is quite stereotypical. Aibolit is, in fact, a Deputy of the Baltic. With his fussiness, with his habit of sitting under a tree for a long time, he vividly embodies senile infirmity.

As a result, the author of the article comes to an interesting conclusion: “Aibolit and Barmaley are antipodes, but the difference between them is not so great. They are close as A and B. If Aibolit resurrects children and animals for a short life, then Barmaley forever brings them to the face of healing death.

"The bears went

By bike.

And behind them a cat

Backwards.

And behind him mosquitoes

On a balloon.

And behind them crayfish

On a lame dog.

Wolves on a mare

Lions in the car.

Bunnies on the tram

Toad on a broom...

They go and laugh, when suddenly a terrible giant crawls out of the gateway - the Cockroach. He threatens the beasts that he will eat them. The animals are in a panic - the wolves ate each other, the crocodile swallowed the toad, and the elephant sat on the hedgehog. Only crayfish are not afraid - although they back up, they fearlessly shout to the mustachioed monster that they themselves can move their mustaches - no worse than a Cockroach. And Hippo promises to those who are not afraid of the monster and fight with him, give two frogs and welcome a fir cone. The animals have taken courage and rush in a crowd to the barbel. But when they see him, the poor fellows are so frightened that they immediately run away. The hippo calls on the animals to go and raise the Cockroach on its horns, but the animals are afraid: “All you can hear is how the teeth are chattering,

You can only see how the ears are trembling.

And so the Cockroach became the lord of the fields and forests, and all the animals obeyed him. He orders the beasts to bring him their children for dinner. All animals cry and say goodbye to their children forever, cursing the evil master. Poor mothers weep the most:

What kind of mother would agree to give her sweet child for dinner to an insatiable scarecrow? But then one day a Kangaroo rode up. Seeing the barbel, the guest laughs: “Is this a giant?<...>It's just a cockroach!<...>Cockroach, cockroach, cockroach.

Liquid-legged goat-insect". The kangaroo shames his toothy and fanged acquaintances - they obeyed the booger, the cockroach. Hippos get scared, shush at the Kangaroo, but then a Sparrow flies out of nowhere, which swallows the Cockroach. There is no giant! The whole animal family thanks and praises its deliverer. Everyone rejoices so violently and dances so dashingly that the moon, trembling in the sky, falls on the elephant and rolls into the swamp. But the moon is soon restored to its place, and peace and joy again return to the forest dwellers.

Read the summary of Chukovsky Cockroach

The fairy tale "Cockroach" is one of the most popular and famous works of Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky.

Various animals, birds and insects lived and did not grieve in a magical land. And their whole life was like one holiday. No one ever offended the little ones, did not quarrel and did not fight.

But once an evil and terribly terrible Cockroach entered this happy country and instantly frightened all its inhabitants. All the animals huddled in their burrows and began to tremble with fear, but the Cockroach did not let up, he began to demand small children for dinner. And no one could go and drive out the evil Cockroach, even the big animals were afraid of the red mustache of the villain. And most likely this would have continued for a very long time if a kangaroo had not jumped into a magical land, which began to open everyone’s eyes that a cockroach is not at all scary, but rather small and simply nasty. The animals, of course, did not believe the kangaroo and continued to hide and are afraid. However, a simple gray sparrow flew in, and without even talking to anyone, he took and pecked at an evil and terrible cockroach.

And that sparrow became the winner and savior of the entire magical land. All the animals began to sing songs to him, treat him and rejoice at his release. This is where the fairy tale ends, and the animals of the magical land again began to have fun, sing and dance.
