Deniska's Stories: How It Really Was

Victor Dragunsky wrote "Deniska's Stories" in the late 1950s. Back then, schools had ink wells, the streets had very few cars, and there was one telephone for several families. Much has changed since then, but we still laugh when we... hear "Papa Vasya is strong in mathematics," "syiski, hyhki, and fyfki" or "Chiki-brik! Repeat the trick." "Third place in butterfly style," "Girl on a ball," "Glory to Ivan Kozlovsky," "The secret becomes evident," "He is alive and glowing," "From top to bottom diagonally"… This edition is unusual. It includes not only all the stories about Deniska and his friends but also stories about life sixty years ago. They were written by Denis Dragunsky, a prose writer and the son of the author. He told how they played hide and seek in communal apartments and raced bicycles in the yard, about soda with syrup and general’s buttons, about what is fiction in "Deniska's Stories" and what actually happened.
