khizhina diadi Toma

[Anna Rakityanskaya]

Another proof of popularity of the book and the effect it had on young
minds can be found in S. Mikhalkov's poem "Khizhina diadi Toma", describing
apparently a true story that happened during the stage performance based on
the book. The story was also depicted in a film the title of which escapes me.
