About the author

Sergei Mikhalkov (Russian: Сергей Михалков) was a Russian author of children's books and satirical fables. Since the 1930s, he has rivaled Korney Chukovsky, Samuil Marshak and Agniya Barto as the most popular poet writing for Russophone children. His poems about enormously tall "Uncle Styopa" ("Дядя Стёпа") enjoyed particular popularity. Uncle Styopa is a friendly policeman always ready to rescue cats stuck up trees, and to perform other helpful deeds. In English, his name translates as Uncle Steeple.

Encontré en la biblioteca de mi mamá una edición en español de este libro de editorial Progreso y oh! es interesante, poemas soviéticos para niños que promueven sobre todo el trabajo y el servir a la patria, todo en verso tipo copla, y con unas ilustraciones bellas, bellas. Me gustó.
