How can you become famous? It turns out that you don’t have to be big and strong to do this. Tim the duckling is famous for being very kind and fair. True, everyone in the yard says that he is a bad son and feels sorry for Mother Duck. After all, he loves to walk alone, runs far away, causing Mother Duck endless worries. But on the other hand, if he had not gone to a distant river, he would never have saved a kitten named Chernysh, whom the owner wanted to drown. And Tim couldn’t stand the fact that his beloved Mom was being offended by the goose Tilly, the monkey Bimbo and the fox. She and Chernysh punished the offenders. “And soon Tim became the most obedient duckling in the yard. Everyone praises him very much. All you can hear is our famous duckling, our famous Tim.” This little tale with a dynamic plot, memorable characters and the necessary moral teaching could probably get lost among the vast literary heritage of Enid Blyton (it is said that she wrote between 700 and 800 works! ). However, she did not get lost and did not disappear. The book is still read and republished. Artist: Vladimir Suteev Publisher: Premiere, Astrel, ASTI source:
