As a child, I was taken to school with an in-depth study of English. Both the language and the teacher on this subject I did not immediately like, which was said by me in the first class to my mother. The woman is smart, so she didn't argue, and recorded all the children's English songs that she managed to find on my audio cassettes.
I really liked one song! But unfortunately, I didn’t understand anything about her, and my mother’s knowledge also lacked. Then I took the cassette to school and asked the teacher to explain at least briefly what this song was about. With an unhappy face, she listened for a moment, then turned off: “This is an adult uninteresting song, almost meaningless. of a polymer dragon. It would be better to prepare for the lessons than to listen to all the nonsense.”
I did not know such words. It is polymeric. The song was forgotten, the love of the language restored.

Puff, the magic dragon is an English children's song. It is a pity that because of such teachers many good initiatives are destroyed at the root.
