The story "A golden cloud spent the night" is read at school, although it reveals those aspects of life that are usually hidden from children. The orphanage of Anatoly Pristavkin is by no means a blissful institution, as military orphanages are now. National hatred, it turns out, was also not born yesterday, during the Chechen war. Kids today need to know about this. Just like the fact that the world rests on kindness, love and self-sacrifice.
