Russian children will no longer learn about Carlson, Thumbelina and Kolobka
According to the authorities, the works “Carlson”, “Thumbelina” and “Kolobok” contain harmful information.
The list of fairy tales completely forbidden for children of all ages to read and spread among minors was voiced by presidential adviser Vladimir Tolstoy in the State Duma at a round table on the role of literature in patriotic education.
According to the document "Carlson, who lives on the roof," denies family values and forms disrespect for parents, "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn" can cause children to want to engage in vagrancy. And even works for the smallest caused discontent of local officials. They were outraged that in the fairy tale "Ivan Tsarevich and the Gray Wolf" there are scenes of theft, let me remind you, they stole a horse and Helen the Beautiful there. In "Kolobok" they saw scenes of physical violence, and in "Thumbelina" the facts of coercion to marry.
Denoting all the claims of representatives of the education authorities of the Irkutsk region, Vladimir Tolstoy concluded that children are banned from fairy tales on which their parents and grandparents grew up.
President of the Russian Union of Books, Sergei Stepashin, in turn, suggested that lawmakers should be more attentive to their activities and think when adopting laws.
