Little Raccoon and the Man in the Pond
Little Raccoon and the Man in the Pond
It is no exaggeration to say that the entire childhood of grandparents, parents, and now children and grandchildren has been illustrated by the brilliant left-hander Vladimir Grigorievich Suteev. One of his kindest books is the story of a small but brave Little Raccoon, who was terribly afraid at first, but then made friends with the One Who Sat in the Pond. The fairy tale was written by the American writer Lillian Moore, and Vladimir Suteev gave the book a second, bright and, in fact, immortal life.
Mom gives Little Raccoon a task to go to the pond alone, in the dark, and catch some tasty crayfish for dinner. Little Raccoon enthusiastically rushes to fulfill his mother's request, but the further he goes from home, the more scared he becomes. On the way, he meets Porcupine, Skunk and Fat Rabbit, who frighten him with a story about the One Who Sits in the Pond. But Little Raccoon bravely goes on. He really does see someone in the pond, as it seems to him, very scary, runs away twice and returns twice armed with a stone and a stick. The One Who Sits in the Pond also threatens him with a stone and a stick, and Little Raccoon, completely upset and scared, returns to his mother.
Mom gives her son some wise advice: don't threaten or swing at the One Who Sits in the Pond, but just smile at him. The little raccoon does just that. This time, the One Who Sits in the Pond smiles back at him. Having caught some crayfish, the kid returns home, and his mom reveals a secret to him - who was actually sitting in the pond. But the little reader will have to guess who that person was with the help of his parents. The main and very important conclusion for the kid is that Little Raccoon was small, but brave, and being brave is very good.
