This list of books for children 6-7 years old is, rather, not of a methodological or pedagogical nature, but of a parental nature. All parents think about the question of what exactly to read to their child, why and at what age. In addition, we ourselves have lines that we have loved since childhood, which we, as a reserved property, would like to pass on to our children and grandchildren.
What books should a 6 year old child read? What books, in your opinion, should a child read by the age of 7, that is, before the onset of the so-called primary school age? Below you can view preschool book lists recommended by preschoolers.

9) Mikhail Veksler:
His poems are very funny. Sometimes the joke is immediately clear, and sometimes not immediately. But one thing is clear - with the Russian language he is at home, without ceremony. And readers love it. Because it gives mischievous ease and inspiration to also fool around with words. Don't we have such occasions in our lives? Yes, that's enough!

Contemporary children's writers
Grigory Bentsionovich Oster
A children's writer, from whose works adults can learn a lot of interesting things. He was born in Odessa, served in the navy, his life is still very active: he is a presenter, a talented author, and a cartoon screenwriter. “Monkeys”, “A Kitten Named Woof”, “38 Parrots”, “Caught That Bitten” - all these cartoons were filmed according to his script, and “Bad Advice” is a book that has gained enormous popularity. By the way, an anthology of children’s literature was published in Canada: the books of most writers have a circulation of 300-400 thousand, and Auster’s “Bad Advice” sold 12 million copies!
Eduard Nikolaevich Uspensky
From childhood, Eduard Uspensky was a leader, participated in KVN, organized skit parties, then he first tried his hand at being a writer, and later began writing plays for children's radio programs, children's theaters, and dreamed of creating his own magazine for children. The writer became famous thanks to the cartoon “Gena the Crocodile and His Friends”; since then the long-eared symbol, Cheburashka, has settled in almost every home. We also still love the book and cartoon “Three from Prostokvashino”, “The Koloboks Are Investigating”, “Plasticine Crow”, “Baba Yaga Against!” and others.
JK Rowling
Speaking about modern children's writers, it is simply impossible not to remember the author of the series of books about Harry Potter, the boy wizard and his friends. It is the best-selling book series in history, and the films based on them have grossed huge amounts of money at the box office. Rowling had to go from obscurity and poverty to worldwide fame. At first, not a single editor agreed to accept and publish a book about a wizard, believing that such a genre would be uninteresting to readers. Only the small publishing house Bloomsbury agreed - and it was right. Now Rowling continues to write, is involved in charity and social activities, she is a realized author and a happy mother and wife.
Poems for children by year
Children's poets for preschoolers have created a whole layer of literature: poems on various topics, fairy tales, songs, jokes, riddles in verse. All this is created with a scientific approach, skillfully differentiated taking into account age, interest and memorability. Growing up, a child who knows many poems learns and develops more successfully, and expands his horizons.
3-4 years
Children's poets for preschoolers of younger groups created short poems on educational topics, taking into account their age characteristics. The poems have a touch of play and entertainment and are descriptive in nature. The main thing about them is the ability to capture emotions and mood thanks to the rhythm.
For kids who are just beginning to use their developing thinking and unburdened memory, the following worked:
1. Berestov V.D. (04/01/1928 – 04/15/1998) - writer, translator, children's poet. Born in Meshovsk, Kaluga region. He learned to read early and composed poetry as a child. The first book, “About the Machine,” was published in 1957 and earned recognition from critics and readers. Then there were “Lark”, “Smile”, “Fifth Leg” and others.
His poems for kids are always educational, brief, easy to remember, and correspond to their name: “Kitten”, “Cockerels”, “Bull”, “The Horned Goat is Coming”.
2. Avdeenko K.L. – children's poet, born 04/03/1977 in Leninsk (Baikonur, Kazakhstan), lives in Kiev, writes poetry and fairy tales for the little ones. His works are instructive: you need to learn to read, go to kindergarten, listen to your mother. The poems were written in a humorous form: “Uncle Pinky’s Pigs”, “Quack and Bryak”, “Frozen Christmas Tree, Fluffy Christmas Tree”.
What stands out is his nursery rhymes, small poems for kids that are easy to remember, helping to develop memory and speech. The names speak for themselves: “Soup”, “Pancakes”, “Pasta”, “Cucumber”, “Cutlets”, “Mouse and Bread”.
3. Sef R.S. (06.10.1931 - 20.02.2009) - poet, children's writer, prose writer and translator, playwright, member of the board of the Moscow State Academic Society of the Russian Federation, chairman of the Moscow Children's Writers Association. He was raised by his grandmother, his parents were repressed. He studied at Moscow State University at the Faculty of Journalism. In 1966 he became a member of the USSR Writers' Union.
More than 30 collections of poetry have been published with circulations of several million. His poems for kids help to discover the huge world in an accessible form, give the little person an idea of its vastness, and develop an interest in knowledge. These are wonderful short and laconic works: “Motor”, “Sparks”, “Rain”, “Ant and Watermelon” and others.
4. Tokmakova I.P. (03.03.1929 – 05.04.2018) – children’s writer and poetess, translator, Laureate of the State Prize of Russia. She began her creativity in early childhood. She graduated from the Faculty of Philology of Moscow State University and worked as a translator. Her works for younger preschoolers are easily perceived by ear. In them, she endows objects and phenomena with independent individuality and activity.
Children are happy to receive this kind of information. It is subjectivity that breathes in such poems as “Rain”, “Porridge”, “Aspen”, “Tili-tili”, “Buy onions”.
5. Uspensky E.N. (12/22/1937 – 08/14/2018) – writer, playwright, screenwriter, TV presenter. Children owe him the appearance of such characters as Cheburashka, the crocodile Gena, the cat Matroskin, the dog Sharik and Uncle Fyodor.
The poems are distinguished by their unusual humor, eccentricity and truth of life. The ability to call simple and ordinary things by their proper names evokes the admiration of parents and young listeners of his poems: “About Wet Pants”, “Little Frog”, “About Children Who Have a Bad Time in Kindergarten”, “Cat”.
5-6 years
Children's poets (for preschoolers of the older age group from 5 to 6 years old) wrote poems taking into account successfully developing imaginative thinking and some independent reading skills. Poems are published in books with bright pictures and large print.
Such works include books by famous authors:
1. Barto A.L. (02/17/1906 – 01/1981) – Russian poetess, writer, screenwriter and radio presenter. She became a poetess on the advice of the first People's Commissar of Education of the young Soviet Republic A.V. Lunacharsky, who liked her reading of poetry. The first poems - “The Chinese Little Wang Li” and “The Thief Bear” brought Agnia Barto the popularity of a children's writer.
Agnia Barto is one of the most popular children's poets who wrote poems for preschoolers and primary schoolchildren
Interesting fact: at a meeting with the cosmonauts, Yu. Gagarin handed a note to the poetess on a piece of paper with the words “They dropped Mishka on the floor...”, these were his first poems in childhood. His autograph is preserved in the Agnia Barto Museum.
In her poems, she conducted a dialogue with her little readers on various everyday topics that remain relevant for children in our time. Poems are more like fairy tales, which captivate the child from the first lines and are easy to remember.
The language of presentation is simple and clear. Characters always have their own names, by which adults also remember them: “Our Tanya is crying loudly...”, “Who doesn’t know Lyubochka...”, “Tamara and I...”. The best poems for children aged 5-6 years are considered to be: “Elephant”, “Little Goat”, “Game of the Herd”, “Little Frogs”, “Funny Flower”, “Miracles”, “Bunny in the Window”.
2. Marshak S.Ya. (11/03/1887 – 07/04/1964) - Russian poet, screenwriter, translator, critic and playwright. In 1920 he began writing fairy tales for children. In 1930, together with A.M. Gorky created the Children's Literature Publishing House.
In his works, he skillfully created a magical world that captivated children and told fascinating stories. Adults and children love his wonderful poems: “Robin Bobin somehow refreshed himself on an empty stomach,” “Children in a cage,” “Mustache Striped,” “Ball.”
3. Zakhodera B.V. (09.09.1918 - 07.11. 2000) - children's prose writer, poet, translator and popularizer of world children's literature. Thanks to this poet, works about Winnie the Pooh, Mary Poppins and Alice from Wonderland appeared in Russian translation, far superior to the original in their wit and extraordinary attractiveness.
The writer was unable to publish his own works for children for a long time. In 1956, his first work “Martyshkino Tomorrow” was published, then there were “Nobody and Others”, “To Comrade Children” and others. His poems excite children's imagination, teach goodness, push them to dreams, and help them understand true beauty. The most suitable poems for children 5-6 years old: “The Top”, “The Whale and the Cat”.
4. Alexandrova Z.N. (1907 - 1983) - Russian poetess, translator, who worked in many editorial offices of newspapers and magazines. Many of her poems became songs. The goal of her life is poetry for children, so her poems are characterized by soft lyricism and a unique intonation.
The thematic nature of children's poems coming from her pen easily found its way to the minds and souls of her little readers. They are always full of high moral content, giving children the opportunity to independently formulate morality, following from short poetic stories, the names of which speak for themselves: “In the morning”, “Herself”, “Bathing”, “Horse”, “Blueberries”.
Children's poets for elementary grades
Primary school age is the beginning of the formation of logical thinking and the ability to think in abstract categories. For children 7-8 years old, plot poems are important, after reading which you can draw a vital conclusion for yourself.
Poetry from famous authors offers this opportunity to younger schoolchildren:
1. Chukovsky S.Ya.
(1882-1969) - Russian writer, poet, literary critic, translator, the most published author in our country. In 2017 alone, the published circulation of his books amounted to more than 2,000,000 copies. He began writing for children when he was already well known as a critic.
In 1916, his first children's collection “The Christmas Tree” and the fairy tale “Crocodile” were published, and in 1923 the famous “Moidodyr”, “Cockroach”, and a little later - “Barmaley”. Chukovsky’s poetic fairy tales fascinate children with their storyline and words flowing like music.
Contemporaries claimed that he was a “children’s poet from God.” Until now, children who have just learned to read and write enjoy reading his unique fairy tales: “The Tsokotukha Fly,” “The Stolen Sun,” “Aibolit” and others.
2. Mikhalkova S.V.

3. Kharmsa D.I. (1905-1942) - poet and playwright, real name Yuvachev.

Primary school children should read his wonderful poems: “About Petya”, “Ivan Ivanovich the Samovar”, “The Fox and the Rooster”.
