Students from the Seekers got acquainted with the work of Evgeny Charushin

In the library of the village of Seekers there was a literary leisure for students of the 2 "B" class of the local school. The event was timed to the 125th anniversary of the birth of Yevgeny Ivanovich Charushin - an outstanding children's writer, illustrator and talented animal artist.

Young readers plunged into the world of Charushin, learning interesting facts from his biography, about his deep love for nature and the animal world. Special attention was paid to the writer’s skill in depicting animals and birds: how he conveyed their appearance, habits and character, harmoniously combining text and illustrations.

Yevgeny Ivanovich himself said: I want to convey the mood of the animal: fear, joy, sleep. All this must be observed and felt.” And he did it brilliantly. It is not surprising that Yevgeny Charushin has become a favorite writer of several generations of children, and his works continue to resonate with adult readers.

Schoolchildren enthusiastically listened to such stories as “Vaska, Bobka and Rabbit”, “Tomka”, “How the boy Zhenya learned to say the letter “R” and “A terrible story”. The children also took an active part in the quiz “Attentive Listener”.

At the end of the leisure, the children shared their impressions, noting how much new and interesting they learned about the animal world from the bright, sometimes funny, sometimes sad, but always instructive and amazing books of Charushin.
