Лев по имени Илай: сказочные истории

V sbornik izvestnogo amerikanskogo detskogo pisateli͡a, st͡senarista i khudozhnika-mulʹtiplikatora studii Uolta Disnei͡a Billa Pita (1915-2002) voshli tri skazochnye istorii: "Derzkiĭ plan Zadiry Piskli", "Lev po imeni Ilaĭ" i "Bolʹshoĭ Ėdvin". Nadvigalasʹ Surovai͡a Boĭni͡a - tak lesnye zhiteli okrestili okhotu. V ovrage u Kori͡avoĭ Sosny sobralsi͡a Sovet Zvereĭ. Vse nadei͡alisʹ, chto naĭdëtsi͡a umnik, kotoryĭ predlozhit genialʹnyĭ plan spasenii͡a. No ėtogo ne sluchilosʹ, i zveri reshili, chto kazhdyĭ budet unositʹ nogi ot puli okhotnika v odinochku, kak sumeet. I dli͡a kogo-to iz nikh sledui͡ushchiĭ denʹ vpolne mog okazatʹsi͡a poslednim, esli by ne otvazhnyĭ komarik po imeni Zadira Piskli, kotorogo ponachalu i slushatʹ nikto ne khotel… V posvi͡ashchenii k ėtoĭ knige Bill Pit napisal: "Moim malenʹkim druzʹi͡am, obozhai͡ushchim igratʹ v voĭnushku. Nadei͡usʹ, chto, povzroslev, vy razli͡ubite ėto zani͡atie. Potomu chto nastoi͡ashchee oruzhie s vsamdelishnymi puli͡ami i ubivaet po-nastoi͡ashchemu". V dalekoĭ strane Ngumbazanii zhil lev po imeni Ilaĭ. Dolgoe vremi͡a on byl grozoĭ savanny i luchshiĭ kusok vsegda dostavalsi͡a emu. No gody vzi͡ali svoë, lev sostarilsi͡a i teperʹ mog dovolʹstvovatʹsi͡a lishʹ obʺedkami v kompanii stervi͡atnikov. Shumnye neri͡ashlivye padalʹshchiki uzhasno razdrazhali Ilai͡a. On i predstavitʹ sebe ne mog, chto odnazhdy nazovët ikh svoimi druzʹi͡ami. Schastlivoe detstvo zakonchilosʹ, kogda krolik Ėdvin nachal rasti ne po dni͡am, a po chasam. Rodnai͡a norka stala emu mala, i roditeli, oblivai͡asʹ slezami, provodili li͡ubimogo synochka v gustoĭ les, gde tolʹko i mog spri͡atatʹsi͡a takoĭ velikan. No i tam ne nashël Ėdvin ubezhishcha, ele nogi unës ot sov, lisit͡s da khorʹkov. I dli͡a fermerov okazalsi͡a on zhelannoĭ dobycheĭ, goni͡ali oni ispolinskogo krolika po poli͡am do samoĭ zimy. No, kak izvestno, mir ne bez dobrykh li͡udeĭ. Odin fermer, k kotoromu neschastnyĭ Ėdvin zabralsi͡a v ambar pogretʹsi͡a, prii͡util bedni͡agu. A vesnoĭ pridumal emu takoe zani͡atie, chto Ėdvin na vsi͡u okrugu proslavilsi͡a. Bill Pit - odin iz tekh mudrykh i tonkikh skazochnikov, kotorye umei͡ut veselo i bez izlishneĭ nazidatelʹnosti probuzhdatʹ v chitatele dobrye chuvstva. Kazhdogo personazha Bill Pit nadeli͡aet i͡arkoĭ individualʹnostʹi͡u, vyrazitelʹnoĭ mimikoĭ i osoboĭ ėkspressieĭ, tak chto geroi na stranit͡sakh ego knig slovno ozhivai͡ut, kak v nastoi͡ashchem mulʹtfilʹme.

The collection of the famous American children's writer, screenwriter and animator of the Walt Disney Studio Bill Pete (1915-2002) includes three fabulous stories.: "The Daring Plan of Badass Squeak," "A Lion Named Eli," and "Big Edwin." A severe Slaughter was coming, as the forest dwellers dubbed the hunt. A Council of Animals gathered in a ravine near a Gnarled Pine Tree. Everyone hoped that there would be a smart guy who would come up with an ingenious rescue plan. But this did not happen, and the animals decided that everyone would run away from the hunter's bullet alone, as best they could. And for some of them, the next day could well have been the last, if not for a brave mosquito named Bully Squeaky, whom no one wanted to listen to at first.… In the dedication to this book, Bill Peet wrote: "To my little friends who love to play war games. I hope that as you grow up, you will stop loving this activity. Because real guns with real bullets really kill." In the faraway land of Ngumbazania, there lived a lion named Eli. For a long time, he was the terror of the savannah, and he always got the best piece. But the years took their toll, the lion grew old and now could only be content with scraps in the company of vultures. Noisy, sloppy scavengers annoyed Eli terribly. He never imagined that one day he would call them his friends. His happy childhood ended when Edwin the rabbit began to grow by leaps and bounds. His native mink became too small for him, and his parents, weeping, escorted their beloved son into a dense forest, where only such a giant could hide. But Edwin did not find shelter there either, he barely escaped from owls, foxes and ferrets. And for the farmers, he turned out to be a coveted prey, they chased the giant rabbit through the fields until winter. But, as you know, the world is not without kind people. One farmer, to whom the unfortunate Edwin climbed into the barn to warm himself, sheltered the poor man. And in the spring, he came up with such an occupation that Edwin became famous all over the district. Bill Pete is one of those wise and subtle storytellers who can cheerfully and without excessive edification awaken good feelings in the reader. Bill Pete gives each character a bright personality, expressive facial expressions and special expression, so that the characters on the pages of his books seem to come to life, as in a real cartoon.
