Review of the fairy tale "In the land of unlearned lessons"
I really liked this fairy tale, because in it the boy Vitya understood that studying is not boring, that knowledge can always be useful to him, and that there is simply no unnecessary knowledge. I really liked the boy Vitya because he turned out to be stubborn, that he counted only on his own strength, that he did not give up and did not retreat, even if he was very scared. But for the sake of a friend, he called for help, did what he would not do for himself.

Read the summary brief retelling fairy tales "In the land of unlearned lessons"
On that day, Vitya received five deuces at once and therefore was in no hurry to go home. Vitya knew that he would still not be able to hide the deuces from his mother, but, fortunately for him, Aunt Polya called.
Then he started teaching. The problem about diggers was not solved, but it was not possible to escape into the yard through the window either. But Lyuska Karandashkina climbed through it and together they began to solve the problem.
For some reason, Vitya got the answer of one and a half diggers. But the main task was solved and Vitya began to learn poetry. Together with Lyuska, they quickly learned "Peasant". But then I had to insert missing vowels in words
Then Katya and Zhenya came and wanted to help with the solution of the problem, but Vitya refused and those offended ones left. Lucy ran after them.
Frustrated, Vitya threw the textbooks on the floor. There was a terrible roar and strange little men appeared in the room. These were textbooks. They began to scold and educate Vitya.
But Vitya said in his heart that he could easily do without all the sciences. The textbooks conferred and decided to send Vitya to the Land of Unlearned Lessons, which is full of various dangers.
But Vitya was not afraid of danger. The textbooks decided to make a guiding ball for Vitya and the boy climbed onto the windowsill. Cat Kuzya suddenly said in a human voice that he was also going with Vitya.
And textbooks began to read the spell. In parting, Geography promised to help in a difficult moment.
And so Vitya and Kuzya flew, and then ended up in the forest. They walked through the forest after the ball for a long time and chatted.
Finally they saw a tall castle with a stone fence and gates. The fence was all intertwined letters, and a huge padlock hung on the gate. Near the gate stood two little men - a straight one and a bent one, whom Vitya christened the Stick and the Hook.
When Vitya pushed the lock, Kryuchok asked him who he was. Vitya replied that he was a fourth grade student Vitya Perestukin. Palka was wildly delighted and gave Vitya a huge key.
But one key was not enough to open the gate. It was necessary to write the words Lock and Key without errors. Vitya sat down on the ground and thought for a long time. But still I remembered the rule about the dropping out vowel and correctly wrote the words.
The gates opened and Vitya and Kuzey found themselves in a huge hall, where grammar rules were written on the walls. In the back of the hall sat an old man - the verb of the imperative mood, and an evil old woman - Comma was spinning near him.
The comma was angry because Vitya never put it in its place. The verb asked how Vitya studies. Vitya said that it was normal, and his grades were no worse than others.
The comma shouted for the documents to be brought in and Vitya's notebook on the Russian language appeared, and only deuces and colas were found in it.
Kuzya noticed that the estimates are still different.
Then various punctuation marks began to run into the hall and sing songs. There were dots and quotes, exclamation and question marks, and of course a comma.
Vitya was tired of this and he asked if he could leave. But the nasty Comma wanted to test his knowledge of unstressed vowels.
Then a dog ran into the hall, which Vitya began to pet. And Comma suggested that the word Dog be spelled correctly. Vitya, of course, wrote Sabak and the Dog became angry and chased Vitya. The boy realized his mistake and corrected the word.
Then the word So.nce appeared on the blackboard and Vitya was asked which letter was missing. The boy said that all the letters were in place and the Sun got angry, it became dark and cold. Then Vitya remembered how to check this word: Sunshine, and spelled the word correctly.
The verb decided to severely punish Vitya and retired to pass the verdict. The boy was put in brackets, but the kind Exclamation and Question marks asked if Vitya had any desire.
Vitya wrote Khlep on the board, then Kalbasa, and several more times this word was incorrect, and of course he received nothing. He got angry and threw the chalk. Kuzya sighed heavily. Then Vitya wrote the word Onion and received a peeled onion.
The gong sounded.
They made a verdict: Execution cannot be pardoned.
And Comma sarcastically offered to put it on Right place. Vitya began to think where to put the comma, and the clock was ticking - he had only five minutes to solve the problem.
He realized that a comma should not be placed after the first word, otherwise he would be executed, but after the second word it is possible.
It turned out: it is impossible to execute, pardon.
The signs rejoiced, the gate opened and the ball rolled on. For a long time the signs shouted words of approval after the boy and the cat.
Vitya and Kuzya followed the ball for a long time, either talking about the role of cats in a person's life, or thinking that learning is sometimes useful.
But now it's getting hot. Vitya and Kuzya were very thirsty. They stopped near a bare hill, but the hill suddenly stood up - it was a camel. He told the travelers that everything around was dying, and Vitya decided to run into the forest to help the animals.
Suddenly, the nearest dry tree turned into an old woman, from whom the camel shied away in horror. It was a drought, which began to praise Vitya Perestukin, for his words that the water, having evaporated, disappears forever.
Vitya began to remember what was happening to the water and finally remembered that it turns into steam, and the steam cools down and turns into rain. And then there was a heavy downpour. Satisfied animals ran out of the forest, flowers bloomed, and the drought again became an ugly dry tree.
But then a loud roar was heard in the forest and the frightened animals fled.
It was a lost polar bear who didn't know where north was. He called the camel a hunchbacked cow and chased after it.
And Vitya and Kuzey went further and came to the city of Mathematics. They saw soda sellers, Plus and Minus.
They said that water is given in exchange for correct answers. Vitya did not know the multiplication table and therefore was left without water. But the cyclist cheerfully answered the question and got his water.
Then Kuzya began to ask to ask the simplest question and the sellers took pity, asking twice two. Even Vitya knew this.
He and Kuzya drank a glass of water and then Kuzya got scared. He saw only legs that had nothing above the waist. Legs began to kick Kuzya. Then he came out from around the corner whole person and said that it was not the tram that ran over his legs, but Vitya Perestukin. The digger asked Vitya to solve the problem correctly.
Vitya thought for a long time and finally decided that two diggers should dig. The diggers were delighted and left. A cyclist drove past Viti again, already a little alive.
Vitya meets a convicted tailor and solves a costume problem. Then he tries to solve the cyclist problem, but fails and runs away on a bicycle.
Here he meets an old pioneer woman from the fourth grade, who complains of sore legs. It turns out that she had to go towards her brother for 60 years. But Vitya climbed a tree and solved the problem. Old people have become pioneers.
Vitya went to look for Kuzya, whom he abandoned while escaping on a bicycle, and found a cat in a bag on a tree. There he was thrown by a very angry cyclist.
Kuzya and Vitya went further and met a breadfruit tree with pretzels and buns. And metal objects grew on a nearby tree - it was an iron tree.
Here the travelers met a cow. The cow was carnivorous and always wanted to eat the cat. A bear came out of the forest and the cow offered the bear to eat the boy. But then a huge kangaroo bird fell from the branches, which was glad that it could fly.
Finally, the bear and the cow pounced on the boy. Vitya and the cat climbed an iron tree and began throwing forks and spoons at the bear. But the tree fell and the bear and the cow prepared to eat Vitya.
And then he remembered that the cow is a herbivore and she began to peacefully pinch the grass, cursing the gophers and mice, from which she had heartburn. The bear followed Vitya and demanded to show the north, Vitya followed the ball.
But then a car drove out with guardsmen and the bear ran away. The oprichniki tied Vitya up and took him to the tsar. The cat insistently asked Vitya to call Geography, but Vitya endured.
Finally he was brought to a big house, and led to a room where there was a telephone on the table. The phone rang, and the bearded man sleeping next to him grabbed the receiver: "The guardsman on duty is listening."
The guardsman on duty decided that Vitya was blessed, but then the angry tsar demanded him.
In the absence of the guardsman, the postman brought a report to the tsar and Vitya read that the hordes of Napoleon Bonaparte were moving towards Moscow.
Kuzya came running and demanded to call Geography. But Vitya decided to remember when Bonaparte was advancing and, although the boyars threatened to crucify him on the rack, he remembered the war of 1812.
Vitya and Kuzya were again under a tree. The ball rolled forward again.
Suddenly, a bear jumped out of the forest. Kuzya shouted that he was running away to the north and took the bear away with him.
Vitya went on alone and was very bored. Suddenly two mountains appeared in front of him. One was covered with snow, and there was a Negro with a monkey. The second with palm trees and there sat a polar bear and a Chukchi. Everyone was crying. They asked Vitya to save them, promising to return the cat to him.
Vitya saw a cat on an icy mountain and climbed up to him, but the cat disappeared and reappeared on a hot mountain. Vitya got there. But the cat is gone again.
Vitya did not know how to correct this mistake, because at the time when the teacher was explaining about belts, he was reading a book about spies. And to save his friend, he called Geography.
When a textbook appeared nearby, Vitya confidently said that monkeys live in the tropical zone, and polar bears live beyond the Arctic Circle. And immediately everything fell into place. And Kuzya was sitting near Vitya's feet.
Geography brought Vitya home. He turned to Kuza, but the cat only meowed. Vitya ran to his mother and she kissed Vitya.
Then Victor corrected homework. He told Luska about the country of unlearned lessons and the next day Luska told about it at school. The guys begged Vitya to tell about this country and he told. The guys made a noise and admitted that everything was very interesting. And the teacher Zoya Filippovna told the boy that she believed that now he would study well.
And Vitya really began to study well and passed the exams. Only sometimes he is very sorry that Kuzya no longer talks.

TALE ABOUT THE BENEFITS OF KNOWLEDGE (To help out-of-class reading)
The story-tale by Leah Geraskina "In the country of unlearned lessons" was and remains one of the most interesting books for younger kids school age. She motivates them to study well at school, to acquire knowledge not under duress, but for the sake of being able to navigate life, to find a way out of the most difficult situations. At the same time, there are no moralizing and tedious edifications in the book at all. On the contrary: humor, unbridled fantasy, the most extraordinary fairy-tale adventures that main character story - a fourth-grade student Viktor Perestukin and his beloved cat Kuzya - all this makes reading the book easy and fun. But at the same time, think: why do we need knowledge at all, what is the use of it?
Victor is an avid loser, while he never ceases to wonder why teachers rarely agree with him. But it's really hard to agree that a cow is a carnivore or that a kangaroo is a bird. And Victor can say whatever he wants in the lesson, without worrying about the logic and plausibility of the answer. The boy has long given up on any homework and justifies himself by the fact that he has neither willpower, nor firm character, nor responsibility. He is too lazy to do something serious. It is boring to learn the rules of the Russian language and solve complex math problems. After all, life in the world is much easier and more convenient when all you have in mind is entertainment, games, pleasures, football with boys or a waste of time - and no worries. Therefore, in Victor's arsenal there are many tricks and excuses aimed at not learning lessons at all. A cunning boy invents the most intricate ways to avoid studying, not wanting to do boring school affairs. Laziness and aversion to textbooks are stronger than the natural desire of many children to be known as wise men in the class. It is not clear where Victor's parents are looking at the same time. However, not only in a fairy tale, but also in real life many parents are no longer up to the children ...
When Victor is given a wonderful opportunity to travel to the fabulous Land of Unlearned Lessons, he gladly agrees, because the textbooks that have come to life promise him many difficulties and dangers on the road. And what boy would refuse dangerous adventures! In addition, as the boy thinks, perhaps “there it will be possible to develop the will and acquire character” (as if this could happen by itself - without labor and effort).
But when Viktor Perestukin and his beloved cat Kuzya end up in the country where Viti's ERRORS live, then the boy has to think about the fact that, it turns out, there is a real benefit from school sciences and from knowledge in various areas of life. In a fairyland, a boy finds himself in situations where he has to act like an adult, that is, take responsibility for his actions and for his ignorance too. From his knowledge (or ignorance) suddenly begins to depend on his own life, the fate of a beloved cat and the well-being of many fairy-tale characters that he met on the way.
Although Viktor Perestukin is an inveterate lazy person and a loser, at the same time he is a very handsome, smart and kind boy who is able to worry about those who feel bad and is ready to help if it is in his power. That is why young readers with great interest and sympathy follow all of his extraordinary adventures and they wish that everything turned out for Viti, as it should, that he correct all his mistakes, remember what he once heard in class and help the fairy-tale characters whom he himself once harmed with his wrong answers. Victor has a motivation to restore in memory at least the knowledge that he once received.
For example, in a castle with turrets, where the King Verb lives with a retinue of commas, dashes and colons, the boy suddenly realizes that the grammar textbook that came to life told him not without reason: “Don’t know mother tongue- shame, misfortune, crime! The Terrible Tsar-Verb puts Vitya in a situation where neither more nor less depends on his knowledge - the life or death of himself - a fourth-grade student! Even if it’s in a fairy tale, pretending, it still becomes scary: what if the boy makes a mistake, puts a comma in the wrong place in the famous sentence “You can’t be pardoned”, and then the plot will end very sadly. This is where the natural quick wit, ingenuity and an attempt to think logically help Victor! No wonder, after all, Comma gave him wise advice: “When you give your head work, you always achieve your goal.” The boy forces himself to think, reason, draw conclusions. In addition, it turns out that he once missed all the rules - something still remains in his memory and now helps to get out of difficult situations in a fairy-tale land.
The first successes inspire Victor, and he steps towards new adventures and dangers. Many funny and instructive stories are waiting for him ahead. The river dried up (Vitya did not know about the water cycle in nature), the polar bear wanders in hot countries (mixed up geographical zones), a strange couple is walking along the road - one and a half diggers (he solved the problem incorrectly), Tsar Ivan the Terrible is going to fight with Napoleon Bonaparte (forgot historical dates) - Victor made all these funny mistakes once in the classroom, and now they need to be corrected at all costs so that everything in an amazing country finally falls into place. It is necessary to stop the war, save the talking cat Kuzya from various troubles, send the polar bear beyond the Arctic Circle and perform dozens more noble deeds, restoring school knowledge bit by bit. That's when Victor understands that "it's a shame not to know the history of your Motherland" or the rules of Russian grammar, which, it turns out, is very pleasant "to solve the problem yourself correctly - it's like scoring a goal."
Thus, Victor really liked saving fairy-tale characters and helping everyone out of trouble who got into trouble through his own fault. It's nice to be a noble hero! But for this you need to know and be able to do a lot. It turns out that knowledge can save! They help to live and be human! They give you confidence! And not without reason, when Viktor Perestukin returned to his familiar world, he first of all rushed to find his textbooks and learn lessons - the very ones that he simply hated just recently. And the next day, at a class meeting, he told the guys about his amazing journey and said that he would now “fight with himself” and would definitely win - he would improve, stop being lazy. Even the teacher Zoya Filippovna believed that Victor would henceforth be a good student. How could it be otherwise, if the benefits and necessity of knowledge are proved in such an unusual way in the fabulous Land of unlearned lessons.

IN THE LAND OF LESSONS UNLEARNED
On the day it all started, I was unlucky from the very morning. We had five lessons. And on each I was called. And in each subject I got a deuce. Only five deuces per day! Four deuces, probably, I got for the fact that I did not answer the way the teachers would like. But the fifth deuce was put completely unfairly.
It’s even ridiculous to say why I was slapped with this unfortunate deuce. For some kind of water cycle in nature.
I wonder how you would answer this teacher's question:
Where does the water that evaporates from the surface of lakes, rivers, seas, oceans and puddles go?
I don’t know what you would say, but it’s clear to me that if water evaporates, then it is gone. After all, it’s not for nothing that they say about a person who suddenly disappeared somewhere: “He evaporated.” It means "he disappeared". But Zoya Filippovna, our teacher, for some reason began to find fault and ask unnecessary questions:
Where does the water go? Or maybe she still does not disappear? Maybe you will think carefully and answer properly?
I think I gave the right answer. Zoya Filippovna, of course, did not agree with me. I noticed a long time ago that teachers rarely agree with me. They have such a negative minus.
Who wants to rush home when you carry a whole bunch of twos in your briefcase? For example, I don't feel like it. That's why I went home an hour later for a tablespoon. But no matter how slowly you go, you will still come home. It's good that dad is on a business trip. Otherwise, a conversation would immediately begin that I have no character. Dad always remembered this, as soon as I brought a deuce.
And who are you? - Dad was surprised. - No character at all. You can not pull yourself together and study well.
He has no will, - my mother added and was also surprised: - Who would it be?
My parents have a strong character and a strong will, but for some reason I don't. That's why I did not dare to immediately drag myself home with five deuces in my briefcase.
In order to play for time longer, I went to all the shops in a row along the way. In the bookstore I met Lucy Karandashkina. She is my neighbor twice: she lives in the same house with me, and sits behind me in the classroom. There is no rest from her anywhere - neither at school, nor at home. Lucy had already had lunch and ran to the store for notebooks. Seryozha Petkin was also here. He came to see if new stamps had been received. Serezha buys stamps and imagines himself to be a philatelist. And in my opinion, every fool can collect stamps this way, if he has money.
I did not want to meet with the guys, but they noticed me and immediately began to discuss my deuces. Of course, they proved that Zoya Filippovna acted fairly. And when I pinned them to the wall, it turned out that they also did not know where the evaporated water was going. I suppose Zoya would have slapped them a deuce for this - they would immediately sing something else.
We were arguing, it seems a little noisy. The saleswoman asked us to leave the store. I immediately left, but the guys stayed. The saleswoman immediately guessed which of us was better brought up. But tomorrow they will tell that I raised the noise in the store. Perhaps they will still blather that I showed them my tongue in parting. What's wrong with that, you ask? Anna Sergeevna, our school doctor, is not at all offended by this, she even asks the guys to show her their tongue. And she already knows what is good and what is bad.
When I was kicked out of the bookstore, I realized that I was very hungry. I wanted to eat more and go home - less and less.
There was only one shop left on the way. Uninteresting - economic. It smelled nasty of kerosene. He also had to leave. The seller asked me three times:
What do you want here, boy?
Mom opened the door silently. But that didn't make me happy. I knew that she would feed me first, and then ...
It was impossible to hide the deuces. Mom said a long time ago that she reads in my eyes everything that I want to hide from her, including what is written in my diary. What's the point in lying?
I ate and tried not to look at my mother. I thought if she could read in my eyes about all five deuces at once.
Kuzya the cat jumped off the windowsill and spun at my feet. He loves me very much and caresses me not at all because he expects something tasty from me. Kuzya knows that I came from school, and not from the store, which means that I could bring nothing but bad grades.
I tried to eat as slowly as possible, but it didn’t work out because I was very hungry. Mom was sitting opposite, looking at me and terribly silent. Now, when I eat the last spoonful of compote, and it will begin ...
But the phone rang. Hooray! Aunt Paul called. In less than an hour, she won't let her mother go off the phone?
Get down to your lessons immediately, - ordered my mother and picked up the phone.
For lessons when I'm so tired! I wanted at least an hour to relax and play in the yard with the guys. But my mother put her hand on the receiver and said that I should count the shopping trip as a vacation. That's how she can read eyes! I'm afraid that she will read about deuces.
I had to go to my room and sit down for lessons.
Clean up on your table! - Mom shouted after her.
It's easy to say - take it away! Sometimes I just wonder when I look at my desk. How many items fit on it. There are torn textbooks and four-leaf notebooks, pens, pencils, rulers. True, they are crowded with nails, screws, wire scraps and other necessary things. I really love nails. I have them in all sizes and thicknesses. For some reason, my mom doesn't like them at all. She threw them away many times, but they return to my desk like boomerangs again. Mom is angry with me because I like nails more than textbooks. And who is to blame? Of course, not me, but the textbooks. You don't have to be so boring.
This time I got through the cleaning quickly. He pulled out a drawer and put all his things in there. Soon and convenient. And the dust is immediately erased. Now it was time to start learning. I opened the diary, and twos flashed before me. They were so noticeable because they were written in red ink. In my opinion, this is wrong. Why write a deuce in red ink? After all, all good things are also marked in red. For example, holidays and Sundays in the calendar. You look at the red number - and you rejoice: you don’t have to go to school. Five can also be written in red ink. A triple, deuce and count - only black! It's amazing how our teachers themselves can't think of this!
Lessons, as if on purpose, were given a lot. And the day was sunny, warm, and the boys were chasing a ball in the yard. I wonder who stood instead of me at the gate? Probably Sasha again: he has been aiming for my place at the gate for a long time. This is ridiculous. Everyone knows what a shoemaker he is.
Cat Kuzya settled down on the windowsill and from there, as from the podium, followed the game. Kuzka did not miss a single match, and dad and mom do not believe that he is a real fan. And in vain. He even likes to listen when I talk about football. He doesn't interrupt, he doesn't leave, he even purrs. Cats only purr when they are pleased.
I was given rules for unstressed vowels. I had to repeat them. I didn't do this, of course. It is useless to repeat what you still do not know. Then it was necessary to read about this very water cycle in nature. I remembered Zoya Filippovna and decided to do a better job of solving the problem.
There was nothing pleasant here either. Some diggers were digging some kind of trench for some unknown reason. Before I had time to write out the conditions, the loudspeaker began to speak. We could take a break and listen. But whose voice did I hear? The voice of our Zoya Filippovna! Little did I get tired of her voice at school! She gave advice on the radio to the guys how to prepare for exams, told how our best student Katya Pyaterkina does it. Since I was not going to prepare for the exams, the radio had to be turned off.
The task was very difficult and stupid. I almost began to guess how it should be solved, but ... a soccer ball flew through the window. These guys called me into the yard. I grabbed the ball and was about to climb out the window, but my mother's voice caught up with me on the windowsill.
Vitya! You are doing homework?! she called from the kitchen. There she had something boiling and grumbling in a frying pan. Therefore, my mother could not come and give me what is due for an escape. For some reason, she really did not like it when I went out through the window, and not through the door. I would be nice if my mother came in!
I got down from the windowsill, threw the ball to the guys and told my mother that I was doing my homework.
Opened the puzzle again. Five diggers dug a trench of one hundred linear meters in four days. What would you think of for the first question? I almost began to think again, but again I was interrupted. Lyuska Karandashkina looked out the window. One of her pigtails was tied with a red ribbon, and the other was loose. And it's not just today. She's like that almost every day. Now the right pigtail is loose, then the left. It would be better if she paid more attention to her hairstyle than to other people's deuces, especially since she has enough of her own. Lucy said that the digger problem was so difficult that even her grandmother could not solve it. Happy Lucy! And I don't have any grandmother.

Read the summary of Geraskin In the Land of Unlearned Lessons
The lazy and loser Viktor Perestukin considers studying at school a boring and useless activity. He does not listen to the teacher at the lesson, does not do his homework. Parents told Vita many times that he did not have character, willpower and the ability to overcome difficulties. Vitya agrees, but believes that he has nowhere to take difficulties to strengthen his character.
One day, on a particularly bad school day, Victor gets five deuces. Returning home from school, the boy tries to hide this from his astute mother and immediately after dinner goes to his room to do his homework. He really wants to kick the ball in the yard, but he needs to solve the problem, learn the poem, repeat the rules of the Russian language. Vitya throws his textbooks on the floor with hatred. Suddenly the light fades, the room is illuminated with a greenish light and the textbooks come to life - Arithmetic, Grammar and Geography - appear before the boy. After consulting, the books decide to send Vitya for re-education to the Land of Unlearned Lessons, where difficulties and dangers are encountered at every turn. Vitya likes this idea, he wants to cultivate willpower and character. Geography promises to come to his aid in the most desperate situation.
Together with his pet cat Kuzey, Vitya finds himself in the Land of Unlearned Lessons in front of the locked gates of a beautiful castle. You can enter inside only by correctly spelling the words "key" and "lock". The boy knows the correct spelling rule, and the doors to the castle open.
Soon they reach the throne room of His Majesty the Imperative Verb. The old woman Comma complains about Vitya, whom the fourth-grader never put in the right place, and demands severe punishment for him. The verb wants to judge fairly. He asks to see Viktor's Russian language notebook. Unfortunately, there are only deuces and blots. Vitya is offered to do some spelling examples, but he does not do well. In addition, he declares that no one needs a comma at all. The verb gets angry and pronounces a verdict on Perestukin: "You can't be pardoned!" Vitya is scared, his only way to save himself is to correctly put a comma in this sentence. It turns out the comma can be vital. Vitya thinks hard, argues, and finds the right solution. Now the verdict sounds like this: "It is impossible to execute, pardon!". Having cheered up, the heroes continue on their way.
Around the land scorched by the sun, a dried forest, dying animals. What happened? The camel they met says that it is the fault of Viktor Perestukin. A negligent student did not learn his homework and declared at the lesson that the water evaporated from the surfaces of rivers, seas and oceans disappears without a trace. You are ashamed of your ignorance and feel sorry for the animals. To save them, you need to remember the water cycle in nature! It is very difficult. The drought tries to interfere with the boy, but, finally, Vitya remembers how rain is formed. Nature comes to life, and the boy and the cat move on.
On their way there is a strange city with round, square and triangular houses. Near the walls of the city, little people Plus and Minus sell soda for correct answers to math questions. To his shame, out of the entire multiplication table, Vitya remembers only 2x2. Here, Perestukin meets a digger, from whom only legs without a torso remained, a tailor unfairly imprisoned for theft, old pioneers who have been going towards each other for 60 years, and a tired cyclist riding at a speed of 100 km / h. All of them suffered because of the lazy Viti, who stupidly and incorrectly solved arithmetic problems. He has to correct his mistakes! Only the problem with the cyclist does not work out, and Vitya hurriedly leaves on his bike.
The adventure is not over. Now the travelers want to eat the cow, which Vitya called a carnivore during the lesson, and the polar bear, which got lost. To save himself, the fourth grader quickly remembers that a cow is, of course, a herbivore! Cow begins to graze joyfully in the meadow. But where the north is, the boy does not know and cannot return the bear home.
Suddenly, guardsmen of Ivan the Terrible appear on the horizon and Vitya is taken to the governor. The war is approaching, Napoleon's troops are advancing on Rus'. Victor understands that this is also his fault, because he blurted out such a thing in history class. The situation is heating up, but Vitya, fortunately, recalls the date of the Patriotic War with the French - 1812. Bonaparte could not fight Ivan the Terrible!
Continuing the path between two mountains, Victor hears plaintive cries. On the icy mountain on the right, a black child and a monkey are shivering from the cold, and on the mountain on the left, a small Chukchi and a polar bear are dying from the heat. With them is the cat Kuzya, who will not return to the owner until Vitya remembers everything about geographical zones. But he was reading a book about spies when the teacher was talking about it! You can't remember what you never knew. Vitya calls Geography for help. With her help, everyone ends up at home: a Negro with a monkey, and a Chukchi with a polar bear, and Vitya with Kuzey.
The journey to the Land of Unlearned Lessons benefited Vita Perestukin. He began to study better, made a promise to fight his laziness. School classes no longer seem boring to him. And the kids in the class loved the story of his adventures!

I’m not proud that I didn’t read age-appropriate children’s books at one time, but I’m glad that it’s never too late to return to them!
“In the land of unlearned lessons” by Lia Geraskina is the very case when I enjoyed the cartoon without thinking about the source. It turned out that there are more characters in the book, and the adventure is longer.
The first thing that catches your eye is support. Soviet fairy tale to a traditional fairy tale. Textbooks come to life, and there are certainly three of them - mathematics, grammar and geography. It is their collective "effort" that sends the boy on a journey full of hardships and hardships, from which he will not only learn his lessons, but also temper his character. The boy is given a guide - ̶v̶o̶l̶sh̶e̶b̶n̶y̶y̶ ̶k̶l̶u̶b̶o̶ch̶e̶k̶ a soccer ball that you need to follow without deviating. A partner is sent with the boy - the cat Kuzya, who will prove himself not only as a true friend, but also a protector and assistant, like a real Puss in Boots!
There are a lot of adventures for Viktor Perestukin, a fourth grade student who manages to get five twos at once in one day! These are the well-known “Execution cannot be pardoned”, and 1.5 diggers, and soda for solved examples, and a carnivorous cow and a lost polar bear. But in fact, they would be enough for the whole series! My favorite non-cartoon moments: a tailor arrested for stealing; visual test dictionary words"dog" and "sun"; retired pioneers, whom Vitya calculated a meeting in 67 years instead of two hours; the war of Ivan the Terrible with Napoleon, guardsmen in cars and with telephones in the upper rooms. By the way, the issue of the polar bear is never resolved in the book. Meetings with him occur periodically, but Vitya could not deceive him, as in a cartoon. And the comma in the palace is not a chorus girl, but a very harmful old woman.
In the book, travelers immediately get to the gates of the palace of His Majesty the Verb of the imperative mood and already from the palace through the town square they go deep into the forest. That is, with respect to the cartoon, the path goes the other way around.
Needless to say, I loved this story! At what now it seems to me even more relevant than at the time of its writing (1965). At the beginning of the story, there is reasoning that "Four deuces, probably, I received for the fact that I did not answer the way the teachers would like." That is, the competence of teachers is called into question. I can be wrong, because I myself studied at school for a long time, my child is still far from it, so I build my assumptions on the experience of communicating with other people, but it seems to me that the status of a teacher after the 90s has been significantly shaken. Now they don’t give a belt or a student in the neck for a deuce, but they prefer to convey to the teacher with flattery and blackmail that their child is not a lazybones, but a finely organized nature that should not be evaluated according to the standards of the program, but better not to be evaluated at all, everything is so priceless, and put higher marks so as not to spoil total score, “After all, he’s trying!”, When he doesn’t even try at all. If only I were wrong! Moreover, at the end, Victor himself realized that he picked up two deuces solely for his laziness and lack of knowledge, and not because of the whim of the teacher.
