The poem “A Good Attitude Toward Horses” is included in the literature curriculum for the 7th grade. Vladimir Vladimirovich Mayakovsky (1893–1930) is an outstanding poet of the 20th century, known as a lyricist and orator. He wrote works for both adults and children. His poems for children are filled with striking images, a memorable rhythm, and an accessible language—they teach young readers kindness and decency. Imagine: a horse has fallen, the crowd laughs, and it is both hurt and afraid. Only one person comforts it. With “A Good Attitude Toward Horses,” Mayakovsky reminds us that there is always room for empathy in the human heart. The collection includes such works as “What Is Good and What Is Bad?”, “Who to Be?”, “An Unusual Adventure That Once Happened to Vladimir Mayakovsky One Summer at the Dacha,” “Every Page—Either an Elephant or a Lioness,” and others that are studied at school.
