Timur and His Squad (Timur i Yego Komanda)

The story 'Timur and His Team' was written in 1940 and immediately became a favorite among millions of young readers, and the Timurov movement—selflessly helping those in need—truly swept the country. Secretly performing their good deeds, the Timurovites left a sign of this patronage on their home gates—a five-pointed star, symbolizing their selfless love for the Motherland and their readiness to defend it. Gaidar's book is imbued with faith in a bright future, which is perhaps why its heroes are still alive today.
