Within the canon of Russian children's literature, there are few writers as popular as Lidiia Churilova (1875 – 1937), who went by the pseudonym Charskaia.

From 1901 to 1918 Charskaia wrote and published more than 180 works, rendering her 'a ruler of the hearts and the minds' of many generations of Russian children.
