Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy - the author of a large number of stories, novels, novels - also wrote works for children. Many of his stories, simple and truthful, were included in the "ABC" - a book written specifically for the education of peasant children.

"The Lion and the Dog" is an unusually touching and sad story about the friendship of two animals. Evil and cruel people threw a small defenseless dog into a lion's cage to be eaten. However, the lion, always wild, strong, cruel, did not touch her. With the dog, he was caring and attentive: "The lion did not touch her, ate food, slept with her, and sometimes played with her." The dog died a year later. Strikingly, the grief of the lion, which "fought, rushed about in the cage and roared, then lay down beside the dead dog and calmed down."

The attachment of the lion to the dog turned out to be so strong that he tore another dog, and a few days later, he died. Tolstoy is very brief in telling this story. He does not describe the feelings of the characters, his impressions and attitude to what is happening. But this story cannot leave anyone indifferent. We seem to feel the suffering of a lonely lion. The veracity of the author, who does not embellish or soften the current events, only enhances the impression. This is a story about devotion and loyalty. After reading it, you feel sadness, sadness and admiration.

And the dog" with the subtitle "story-truth" was written by him for the "ABC" presumably around 1875. This book was a collection that included the original texts for children to study various subjects - from zoology and geography to the Russian language.

Tolstoy himself made many demands on the works included in the book. He said:

Children are strict judges in literature. It is necessary that the stories be written for them both clearly, and entertainingly, and morally.

What a story?

Recording a summary of "The Lion and the Dog" for reader's diary could be this: little story tells about the friendship of a big lion and a small dog. She, thrown to him to be devoured, was not only pitied by a large and, by all accounts, vicious predator, but also became a friend to her more devoted than the people who abandoned her.

And when the lion's little neighbor died, he himself soon fell ill and died, without letting anyone into his cage.

Main events

Here we will focus on a brief summary of Tolstoy's The Lion and the Dog.

In one London zoo, stray cats and dogs were taken as a fee for visiting, which were thrown into the cages of predators as food.

Once such a small dog was given to be eaten by a lion. But for some reason he did not eat it, but took pity on it and even began to play with it and share food.

Once a gentleman who came to the zoo recognized his dog in his dog and wanted to take it away, but the lion roared and did not allow it.

So they lived together for a year. And then the dog got sick and died. But the lion did not believe it - at first he kept sniffing it and touching it with his paw, and then he began to jump around the cage, gnawing the bolts in despair.

They gave him another dog, expecting that he would forget the old one, but the lion tore it to pieces.

Ends summary"The Lion and the Dogs" just like the story itself:

Then he hugged the dead dog with his paws and lay like that for five days.

On the sixth day the lion died.

Sense education

As always, after reading the works of Tolstoy, the reader may have many questions, and for sure there will be a strange aftertaste from the stories he told, in general, simple stories.

After a brief summary of The Lion and the Dog, we present some of the reader's conclusions.

Why did the lion take pity on the dog? For her defenselessness? Hardly. If it was customary in that zoo to feed stray dogs and cats to large predators, then the animals are used to eating what they give. How many on the account of the lion were these balls and snow leopards, which he did not regret? Tolstoy says nothing about this.

And at the end of the story, did he tear apart the other dogs thrown into his cage, expressing his disagreement with the decision of cruel fate to deprive him of his little comrade?

Why did the friendly feelings of the lion arise so suddenly, why did his warmth manifest itself so selectively? Maybe the dog was something special?

Probably, the point is in her behavior: when she was thrown into a cage to a lion, she fell on her back - that is, in the most defenseless position for animals - and began to wag her tail, thereby showing complete humility and, at the same time, a friendly disposition towards the owner of the cage. Then she completely stood in front of him on her hind legs.

The reader's conclusion may be as follows: the dog was cunning, she guessed that behaving unbanally in a banal situation is the only chance to survive next to a predator. The lion was surprised. Never before had he come across such strange victims.

And then the dog had to get used to such a dangerous neighborhood, and the lion got used to taking care and made friends with her.

Here is another conclusion of the reader: friendship is selective. You have to be special to deserve it. But is a dog, if it is as stupid as it is weak, unworthy of sympathy and friendly participation?

And here is another conclusion: friendship was necessary not so much for a dog as for a lion. Even in conditions of captivity, he wants to be needed by someone.

But soon the owner came to the zoo for the dog - he wanted to pick it up. Perhaps she was attached to him, and then just got lost? But the lion wouldn't let her in. The little girlfriend became his property.

So. The poor thing had to adapt in order to survive. And the lion started a living toy and came up with the meaning of life. And both of them are, of course, victims in the hands cruel people. Here's the story about it. And for some reason it is believed that this story is about love and devotion. Were they here?

Tolstoy turned out such a not at all childish plot. Although, as in traditional Russian folk tale, Where actors are animals, their actions are projected onto people here too.

We have given a summary of the story "The Lion and the Dog" and a few from the entire spectrum of reader's conclusions. You can find yours.

The story that L.N. will tell us about Tolstoy, happened a long time ago, in the city of London, far from the coast of Russia. Maybe some sailor who had been there told him about this story. Who knows. But the thing is, it's small. Tolstoy was very sensitive - when he listened to sad stories or saw, for example, a dead bird, a kitten with a broken paw, he cried. This trait of compassion remained in him until the end of his life. (child's message).

Many representatives of these breeds help to save people, warm them with their bodies. The smallest dog in the world? chihuahua. Her height is 15-20cm.

a lion: the king of beasts. Looks somewhere up, as if not noticing you. A lion has a mane, but a lioness does not have a mane. Mane indicates power lion: she is both his scepter and orb. Does the lion not roar? "thunder of heaven". He can crawl like a plastuna, and even in low grass he will hide so that you will not notice him. A lion can reach speeds of up to 50 km / h. Can climb trees. The king of animals gives way to adult rhinos, elephants, hippos, and is wary of them. Is the lion stronger than all? It turns out not.
