The work of Konstantin Paustovsky "Disheveled Sparrow" belongs to the section of fairy tales. All fabulousness exists only in the behavior of the sparrow, whom the girl Masha saves. He understands human language and knows how to sympathize. The main events of the book are contained in a very short summary for the reader's diary performed by the Literaguru team.
(215 words) Once upon a time there was a family. Masha’s girl’s mother worked in the theater and was a ballerina. Dad worked as a sailor. Therefore, often the child was left with a nanny. Masha liked to look out the window and watch what was happening.
The described story happened in the winter. The kiosk stood close to the house where this family lived. In winter, the stall was closed, and in summer you could always buy ice cream. A cunning and agile crow settled in this kiosk. When the window was open, she could steal food imperceptibly.
Crow often dragged trinkets and jewelry from apartments to his home. Once a sparrow flew into her lair. She hit him with his beak, and he fell to the ground. The policeman picked up the bird and gave it to Masha. The girl was glad that she could look after a new pet. Sparrow came to his senses, got stronger and always came back.
When the father returned from the seas, he gave his mother a brooch in the form of a bouquet. Soon, my mother was supposed to go on stage in the theater as Cinderella. She showed her daughter a brooch and asked not to touch her.
Masha was interested to know how the crow steals things. To do this, she opened the window and hid behind the wall. The bird got inside and took the brooch with it. Mom had to go to perform without decoration. Already during the dance on stage, a woman noticed a sparrow holding a brooch in its beak, which then ended up in her hands. With this act, the pet thanked Masha for the care.
