Comrade Chukovsky! I bought my eight-year-old daughter your book, The Adventures of Munchausen. I bought it and, without reading, gave it to her on her birthday to make the child pleasant. I gave the book without reading, because, first, it was not time to read, and secondly, on the first sheet was clearly written: "For children".

What was the surprise and disappointment of my daughter, and with her, when we started reading this book. This "most true man on earth" lies so much about himself and his accomplishments that it confuses children. It breaks or fails the head inside the person, and then appears again. He flies to the moon. And if he was flying in order to give the children some information about the surface of the moon, etc., this flight would be fantastic, but still interesting, or some from the beginning to the end unlikely attempts to climb on a bean plant to the moon, to descend down on a pine rope. The most ridiculous ideas about the "monthly inhabitants", their way of life, etc. (c) the
Lunticophobes, are you immortal mountaineers?
