Confusion

"Confusion" is a fun topsy-turvy fairy tale. The animals suddenly wanted to speak differently, not as they would naturally. The kittens started grunting, the ducklings croaking, the hens quacking, even the sparrow mooed like a cow. Only the bunny was well-behaved. He honestly warned the animals about the bad consequences. Disobedience, as is known, leads to no good. Mischievous fox cubs play with matches and set the sea on fire. Then comes deliverance from danger – the sea is extinguished through joint efforts. And everything ends, as is customary with Chukovsky, with a cheerful dance.

Through topsy-turvy verses, a child checks and strengthens their life experience. They are like a funny game, invariably making the child laugh and boosting their self-esteem. The light style, simple phrases, dynamic, changing plot, and onomatopoeia easily stick in a child's memory and enrich their vocabulary.

The artist Vladimir Konashevich thoroughly and diversely depicted all the participants of this animal bacchanal. His illustrations are perfect for teaching children about the most popular representatives of the animal kingdom.
