Children of the Soviet era without fail studied the story of Arkady Gaidar (Golikov) "Timur and his team" at school. Films were made on this plot, performances were staged. But now the children began to read less. Many modern guys, unfortunately, have never even heard of the book "Timur and his team." A brief summary, a review of this story will help children form their own idea of \u200b\u200bthis work, and their parents - to remember their favorite characters.

Start

The book was written before the Great Patriotic War, in 1940. At that time, they did not yet know that such trials were coming for the Soviet people. But Gaidar seemed to have a presentiment that the country would soon be in danger - the story takes place during the war, but with an unnamed enemy.

In the center of the plot are teenagers. Zhenya and Olga, the daughters of Alexandrov, a Soviet commander, come to the dacha in the summer. One day, 13-year-old Zhenya wandered into the attic of the house and found a whole headquarters there. Carried away, the girl began to give signals,without knowing it myself. Guys from a secret youth organization came running to them.

It was Timur and his team. The summary (reviews about the story are mostly positive) will tell about the main storyline. Timur was the same age as Evgenia. He told the girl that he and the guys help the elderly, lonely and needy people. Especially those who have left their family for the war. To do this, the guys draw stars on the houses of the Red Army.

Hooligan Kvakin

In contrast to Timur's bold team, Gaidar puts Kvakin's gang. These guys traded in petty theft of fruits and berries from other people's gardens and hooligans. By coincidence, Zhenya's older sister, 18-year-old Olga, sees Timur next to Kvakin and decides that he is the same bully. She forbids her younger sister to be friends with him. Here's an interesting plot came up with Gaidar. Timur and his team, on the contrary, helped the elderly, cleaning houses, on the site, chopping firewood, etc.

The young man helped Zhenya. One day, the father called his daughters and said that he would be passing through a city apartment. Olga managed to go to meet her father, but Zhenya was not at home at that time. She read the note left by her sister late. Evgenia really wanted to see her father, but did not know how to get to him from the dacha. Night fell and the trains were no longer running. Then Timur helped her. Despite the prohibition of his older brother, he took his motorcycle and drove the girl to the meeting place.

Good wins, as does Timur and his team. Summary, review, resonance of the story

At the end of the story, the heroes - Timur and his team - brought Kvakin's gang to clean water. They came up with a clever plan, as a result of which the hooligans fell into a trap - they were locked in a booth in the market square, and everyone saw who was stealing fruits from the orchards. Timur released the head of the hooligans, despite the fact that he did not want it. So the noble hero and his friends won, and the hooligans were defeated, but more morally.

This is the main storyline of the story "Timur and his team" - a summary. The reviews, the resonance after the book saw the light, were impressive. Many "Timurov" detachments began to form in the country. Children helped those who needed their help, collected scrap metal, waste paper. During the war, which began a year after the publication of the book, many pioneers showed miracles of heroism. And they were also called "Timurovites".
