Stories and stories

He knew many fables, fairy tales, stories and stories, which he enthusiastically told to children. Both his own grandchildren and peasant children listened to him with interest.
Opening in Yasnaya Polyana a school for peasant children, Lev Nikolayevich himself taught there.
He wrote a textbook for the little ones and called it "ABC". The author's work, consisting of four volumes, was "beautiful, short, simple and, most importantly, clear" for children to understand.
Lion and mouse
The lion was asleep. A mouse ran over his body. He woke up and caught her. The mouse began to ask him to let her go; she said:
If you let me in, and I'll do you good.
The lion laughed that the mouse promised to do him good, and let her go.
Then the hunters caught the lion and tied it to a tree with a rope. The mouse heard a lion's roar, came running, gnawed at the rope and said:
Do you remember that you laughed, did not think that I could do good to you, but now you see - sometimes good things come from a mouse.
How a thunderstorm caught me in the forest
When I was little, I was sent to the forest for mushrooms.
I reached the forest, picked up some mushrooms and wanted to go home. Suddenly it became dark, it started to rain and it thundered.
I got scared and sat down under a large oak tree. Lightning flashed so bright that my eyes hurt, and I closed my eyes.
Above my head something crackled and thundered; then something hit me in the head.
I fell and lay there until the rain stopped.
When I woke up, trees were dripping all over the forest, birds were singing and the sun was playing. A large oak tree broke and smoke was coming out of the stump. Oak secrets lay around me.
My dress was all wet and stuck to my body; there was a bump on my head and it hurt a little.
I found my hat, took the mushrooms and ran home.
There was no one at home, I took out bread from the table and climbed onto the stove.
When I woke up, I saw from the stove that they had fried my mushrooms, put them on the table and were already hungry.
I shouted: "What are you eating without me?" They say: "Why are you sleeping? Go quickly, eat."
Sparrow and swallows
Once I stood in the yard and looked at the nest of swallows under the roof. Both swallows flew away in my presence, and the nest was left empty.
While they were away, a sparrow flew off the roof, jumped onto the nest, looked around, flapped its wings and darted into the nest; then he stuck his head out of there and chirped.
Soon after, a swallow flew to the nest. She poked her head into the nest, but as soon as she saw the guest, she squeaked, flapped her wings in place and flew away.
Sparrow sat and chirped.
Suddenly a herd of swallows flew in: all the swallows flew up to the nest - as if to look at the sparrow, and again flew away.
The sparrow was not shy, turned his head and chirped.
The swallows flew up to the nest again, did something and flew away again.
It was not for nothing that the swallows flew up: they each brought mud in their beak and gradually covered up the hole in the nest.
Again the swallows flew away and again flew in, and more and more they covered the nest, and the hole became tighter and tighter.
First, the sparrow's neck was visible, then one head, then the nose, and then nothing became visible; the swallows completely covered it up in the nest, flew away and whistled around the house.
Two comrades
Two comrades were walking through the forest, and a bear jumped out at them.
One rushed to run, climbed a tree and hid, while the other remained on the road. There was nothing for him to do - he fell to the ground and pretended to be dead.
The bear approached him and began to sniff: he stopped breathing.
The bear sniffed his face, thought he was dead, and walked away.
When the bear left, he climbed down from the tree and laughs.
Well, - he says, - did the bear speak in your ear?
And he told me that bad people those who run away from their comrades in danger.
Liar
The boy guarded the sheep and, as if he saw a wolf, began to call:
Help wolf! Wolf!
The men came running and saw: not true. As he did so two and three times, it happened - indeed, a wolf came running. The boy began to shout:
Here, here quickly, wolf!
The peasants thought that they were deceiving again as usual - they didn’t listen to him. The wolf sees, there is nothing to be afraid of: in the open, he cut the whole herd.
Hunter and quail
The quail got caught in the hunter's net and began to ask the hunter to let him go.
You just let me go, - he says, - I will serve you. I'll lure you other quails into the net.
Well, quail, - said the hunter, - and so I would not let you in, and now even more so. I’ll turn my head because you want to give out yours.
Girl and mushrooms
Two girls were walking home with mushrooms.
They had to cross the railroad.
They thought the car was far away, climbed the embankment and walked across the rails.
Suddenly a car rustled. The older girl ran back, and the younger one ran across the road.
The older girl shouted to her sister, "Don't go back!"
But the car was so close and made such a loud noise that the younger girl could not hear; she thought she was being told to run back. She ran back across the rails, stumbled, dropped the mushrooms and began to pick them up.
The car was already close, and the driver whistled with great force.
The older girl shouted: "Drop the mushrooms!", And the little girl thought that she was ordered to pick mushrooms, and crawled along the road.
The driver could not hold the cars. She whistled with all her might and ran into the girl.
The older girl screamed and cried. Everyone passing by looked from the windows of the carriages, and the conductor ran to the end of the train to see what had happened to the girl.
When the train passed, everyone saw that the girl lay between the rails, head downward and did not move.
Then, when the train had already driven far away, the girl raised her head, jumped to her knees, picked up mushrooms and ran to her sister.
Old grandfather and granddaughter
(Fable)
My grandfather became very old. His legs did not walk, his eyes did not see, his ears did not hear, he had no teeth. And when he ate, his mouth flowed back.
The son and daughter-in-law stopped seating him at the table, and gave him dinner at the stove. They took him to dinner once in a cup. He wanted to move her, but dropped and broke.
The daughter-in-law began to scold the old man for ruining everything in the house with them and beating the cups, and said that now she would give him lunch in the tub.
The old man only sighed and said nothing.
Once a husband and wife are sitting at home and watching - their son is playing with boards on the floor - he is working on something.
The father asked: "What are you doing this, Misha?" And Misha and saying: “This is me, father, making a pelvis. When you and my mother are old enough to feed you from this pelvis. "
The husband and wife looked at each other and wept.
They felt ashamed that they had offended the old man so much; and from then on they began to sit him at the table and look after him.
Little mouse
The mouse went out for a walk. I walked around the yard and came back to my mother.
Well, mother, I saw two animals. One is scary and the other is kind.
Mother asked:
Tell me, what kind of animals are they?
The mouse said:
One terrible - his legs are black, his crest is red, his eyes are curled up, and his nose is crooked. When I walked past, he opened his mouth, lifted his leg and began to scream so loudly that I did not know where to go from fear.
This is a rooster, said the old mouse, he does no harm to anyone, do not be afraid of him. Well, what about another beast?
Another was lying in the sun and warming himself; his neck is white, his legs are gray, smooth; he himself licks his white breast and slightly moves his tail, looks at me.
The old mouse said:
Fool, you fool. It's the cat itself.
Two men
Two men were driving: one to the city, the other from the city.
They hit each other with the sled. One shouts:
Give me a way, I need to get to the city soon.
And the other shouts:
Give me a way. I need to go home soon.
And the third man saw and said:
Whoever needs it soon - that siege back.
The poor and the rich
They lived in the same house: upstairs a rich man, and downstairs, a poor tailor.
At work, the tailor sang songs and prevented the master from sleeping.
The master gave the tailor a bag of money so that he would not sing.
The tailor became rich and guarded his money, but he stopped singing.
And he got bored. He took the money and took it back to the master and said:
Take your money back, and let me sing the songs. And then melancholy attacked me.
