A dog is a true friend of humans, and in this book you’ll find the best works about our four-legged companions. From ancient times to the modern day, dogs have accompanied people as guides, guards, hunters, and—of course—devoted friends. The collection includes works by authors such as L. N. Tolstoy, A. P. Chekhov, M. Prishvin, V. Dragunsky, Yuri Nechiporenko, and others. Their stories are funny, sad, and some are part of the school curriculum. Suitable for reading at the younger school age.
