Kit and cat

In this fairy tale
No order:
Whatever the word
That's a mystery!
That's what
The tale says:
Once upon a time, there were
CAT
And
WHALE.
CAT - huge, just scary!
Kit was small, homely.
Keith meowed.
CAT puffed.
Keith didn't want to swim.
How afraid of the fire of water.
CAT always laughed at him!
Time passes like this
WHALE:
wanders at night,
Snores during the day.
CAT
Floats on the ocean
WHALE
He eats sour cream from a saucer.
Catches
WHALE
Mice on dry land.
CAT
Hits the sea
Buckwheat!
WHALE
Scratched, biting
If there was an unequal dispute
Saved from his enemies,
Climbing the fence.
Good cat
Didn't fight with anyone
From enemies
Tried to swim
Fins beats a wave
And leaves
In depth...
WHALE
Liked to climb higher.
At night
Sang songs on the roof.
Call him:
- Kitty Kitty!
He willingly
Jump down.
That's how it would go on
Without end, of course
But
The denouement was approaching:
In the sea
Came out
Whaler.
vigilantly looks
Captain.
Sees - at sea
The fountain is beating.
He gives the command:
- Keith on course!
Full move!
Whaler
Suitable for gun...
Guns are not toys!
I will tell
To be honest:
I don't envy
KITU!
- Mother!
Shouted the whaler
Jumped off the gun.
What is this?..
Tail pipe...
Ears on top...
Stop, car!
Get out, freak!
Hey, semindra:
In the sea - CAT!
- Take it easy!
What happened to you?
- I, - shouts, - not kotoboy!
Report to the captain
I won't shoot the cat!
I am ready to punish
Those who torture cats!
"Everyone, everyone, everyone!
Trembling like a leaf
The telegram is sent by the radio operator.
All-all-all!
Coming at us
Miracle-Yudo Fish-Cat!
There is some mystery here!
There is no order in this story!
The cat must live on land!
SOS (Save our souls!)"
And in response
To the whale base
Helicopter
Sits down immediately.
In him
Responsible persons
Arrived from the capital:
The doctors,
professors
Nurse,
Whale Academician,
Academician on Cats,
With them seventy students,
Thirty-five correspondents
Two editors with proofreader,
Newsreel with spotlight
Young naturalists
And other specialists.
Everyone went down to the deck
Barely accommodated.

Analysis of the fairy tale "The Whale and the Cat" by Zakhoder

Perhaps one of the most fun and exciting children's books is "The Whale and the Cat" by Boris Zakhoder. Kids really like the fascinating plot of the fairy tale. We invite you to recall the work in our short article.

A little about the author

The name of Boris Zakhoder is familiar to everyone thanks to children's fairy tales. The writer's father was a humorist, his mother was a translator. Little Borya wanted to become a scientist, but later realized that his vocation was literature. In Soviet times, his fairy tales were underestimated, they did not want to publish them. Boris did not give up, he was engaged in translations of foreign works, for example, it was he who translated the book "Alice in Wonderland". Later, the well-deserved fame came to the author: funny fairy tales talented writer fell in love with children and their parents, there was a demand for them.

About the heroes of the work

Any preschooler knows: whales are the inhabitants of the seas and mysterious oceans, and cats are pets, lovers of milk and purring softly in the owner's ear. But everything turned upside down in the story. A huge cat splashes in warm sea water, swims with pleasure to the water depth. And a small whale, covered with smooth fur, at this time gobbles up sour cream, runs from dogs, sings songs and catches mice!

One day a whaling ship approached a whale. The whaler was about to shoot from a cannon, but it wasn’t there: it wasn’t a Whale that was swimming in the sea, but a real domestic CAT! Whaler was surprised like never before and decided to call all the learned people on his ship: students, journalists, and writers arrived. Everyone began to think and wonder, how could this be? It turned out that KIT and CAT switched places. Now the CAT lives in the depths of the sea, and the KIT enjoys sour cream at home. For a whole year, all scientists tried to solve the riddle of these animals. After a long search for an answer, it turned out that the writer who wrote the fairy tale simply mixed up the letters! So the cat turned into a whale, and the whale into a cat. As soon as everyone understood what had happened, the animals returned to their places: the cat - to the apartment, and the whale - to the sea.

What does a fairy tale teach?

Such a fairy tale can lead children to very important thoughts. What caused such confusion? How can you confuse a cat and a whale? It's all about the mistake of an inattentive writer. A simple comical story suggests that you always need to be attentive and competent, double-check your work so that you never confuse anything!
