Mister Twister. Illustrated by A. Eliseev and M. Skobolev

The book of the classic children's literature S. Marshak includes three works united by the theme of travels and the theme of Leningrad: the poems "Here is How Absent-Minded" and "Post", and the satirical poem "Mister Twister". Readers will meet a resident of Leningrad who, due to his absent-mindedness, constantly found himself in comical situations, learn what mailmen were like and how letters were sent on round-the-world journeys, and will then see the rich and poorly mannered Mister Twister, who paid for his contemptuous attitude towards people. As the poet himself said, "Mister Twister" was based on real events that happened to an American tourist in Leningrad. The book features illustrations by famous graphic artists, caricaturists, folk artists of the Russian Federation, and honored artists of the RSFSR Anatoly Eliseev and Mikhail Skobolev. For younger school age.
