Mityaev Anatoly Vasilyevich was born in the Ryazan province in the village of Yastrebki on May 12, 1924. During his life, he moved far up the career ladder. He was the editor-in-chief of Murzilka and the Soyuzmultfilm studio. But for most, he is known as a writer.

All these books are familiar to Soviet children, as well as to those who in our time are looking for literature about adventures, about the heroes of our country, about the Great Patriotic War, about real people.

Writer's biography

Studied Anatoly Mityaev up to grade 9 in the village of Klyazma. At that time, he had not yet thought about writing, but dreamed of entering a forest technical school. However, he did not have to study there. The war has begun. Anatoly Mityaev signed up as a volunteer in the summer of 1942 and practically from the first days he began to participate in hostilities. He was assigned to the guards mortar division. The future writer served as a gun number. During the war, he happened to be a driver's assistant on the Belorussian front and studied at a mortar school. So everything he wrote about in his works, which he began to create at that time, he knew firsthand. Including about the feat. Anatoly Vasilyevich had a medal "For Courage".

Career

After he was mobilized in 1947, Anatoly Mityaev got a job as a journalist in a regional newspaper. Then his stories began to be published. Soon he becomes the executive secretary of Pionerskaya Pravda. After working there for two years, in 1960 he moved to Murzilka as the chief editor. Anatoly Mityaev, having gone through the difficulties of wartime, did not lose the feeling of a childish, unclouded, naive vision of the world. Therefore, the magazine flourished under his leadership. Who else could publish a press for children, if not a person who understood so well how they see the surrounding reality and what they want from life.

After 1972, he worked as the editor-in-chief of Soyuzmultfilm. At this time, he not only carries out managerial activities, but also writes several scripts for cartoons. All of them were educational and fun. For example, the cartoon "Granddaughter Lost" tells about the relationship between grandfather and granddaughter. The girl does not obey, and the elderly man decides to scare her with the police. After that, the granddaughter runs away. So the police really had to look for her. Once a girlwas taken home, grandfather realizes that his pedagogical technique did not work and should not be done again.

Book "Soldier's Feat"

The war is won thanks to the efforts of ordinary people. Anatoly Mityaev knew and remembered this. In his book, he collected six stories about the events of the Great Patriotic War. In the preface, the author addresses children. Briefly recalling what war is and how long it lasted, Anatoly Mityaev, whose stories the children loved, moves on to the main idea. We must do everything so that it does not happen again. And for this, one should not forget about the feat of a soldier, his courage, selflessness and devotion to his homeland.

About the attitude to the feat

The story "The Triangular Letter" tells of a soldier named Boris who wrote a letter to his mother. The day was calm, and he reported that everything was fine, that he was he althy. But a military attack suddenly began, and Boris saved the wounded during it. Then he sat down to write a letter. For him, everything that had happened was not new, but he did not tell his mother about it so as not to excite her. A soldier, performing a feat, appreciates it less than the calmness of a mother, for whom, in turn, it is important that her son is alive and well.

One man in the field

In another story, "Dangerous Soup", it is about the cook Nikita. Although he had to prepare food for the soldiers, he always kept his weapons ready to fight back the enemy. One day such a caseintroduced himself for him. He and the driver were driving lunch to a field kitchen along the highway. Suddenly they met the Nazis. Nikita decided to prevent the enemies from crossing the road. But how? After all, there are only two of them. Climbing up the hillock, the soldiers unhooked the field kitchen, stuffed it with explosives and pushed it down. The Nazis were amused by what they saw and came closer. There was an explosion. Nikita was presented for the award.

It is better to take and read this book yourself, as well as other works of the author, written in an easy and understandable language.

The life of this bright, charming man was long. He died in Moscow at the age of 84. With the departure of Anatoly Vasilyevich, another source of warmth and kindness disappeared, which is so lacking in this world for modern children.
