The cheerful story about Emil from Lenneberga, which was written by the wonderful Swedish writer Astrid Lindgren, and brilliantly retold into Russian by Lilianna Lungina, was loved by both adults and children all over the planet. This curly-haired boy is a terrible mischief-maker; he won’t live a day without getting into mischief. Well, who would think of chasing a cat to check if it jumps well?! Or put a tureen on yourself? Or set fire to the feather on the pastor's hat? Or catch your own father in a rat trap and feed the pig with drunken cherries?..
