Uncle Fedor, the Dog and the Cat

Writer Eduard Uspensky is very fond of animals. And he doesn't just love them, he understands them well. Perhaps even—though it’s a secret—he knows dog and cat languages better than Professor Semin himself from the book about Uncle Fyodor. That is precisely why Matroskin the cat and Sharik the dog, though fictional, feel so lively and real that now all cats and dogs seem to resemble them. On the other hand, Uncle Fyodor (the boy) is like no one else. Children like him simply don't exist! Independent, responsible—a wonder-child, the dream of all parents! This trio from Prostokvashino has already captivated more than one generation of children, and how many more lie ahead!
