> I'm in the midst of planning a fall Russian course in translation which
will

> of the films fit around the theme of childhood to adulthood and examine
> children or adolescents as characters (e.g. "Chuchelo," "Ivanovo
detstvo").
> However, I am in real need of some short texts, ideally 20th century,
which
> deal with similar themes or can be conveniently read from the context of
the
> child.  Regretfully, they must also exist in English translation for this
> class.  Any suggestions would be deeply appreciated.

> Thanks very much!
