Those who read the books of Yuri Tretyakov, believe that this was an outstanding children's writer, but his name is undeservedly forgotten.
Biography
Yuri Fedorovich was born in Borisoglebsk in March 1931. This city now has a population of more than 61, 000 people. And during the childhood of the future writer, it was a provincial village with forests, a river, with one-story houses, in the courtyards of which there were front gardens. But nature, the people who lived there, peers of Yuri - all this did not escape the observant look of the future writer.
The young man studied well. He graduated from high school with a gold medal. Since the boy was often ill in childhood, he wanted to learn how to cope with these ailments, so he entered the medical institute in Moscow. Then in this educational institution there was a very big competition. But the excellent successes of the young man helped him to do without problems. It would seem that life is already settled. Ahead came a useful prestigious specialty. But Tretyakov all his life obeyed the call of the heart.
When he realized that he was attracted to literature more, he left the institute without hesitation, although he had already completed his first year.
By this time, a creatively gifted young man was writing stories that he brought to magazines and newspapers, where his creations began to be printed.
Then the gifted young man decided to enter the literary institute, and he passed the exams very well. After graduation, the young man of letters received higher education.
Yuri Tretyakov was still a student when he wrote and released his first book. It was a storybook called Beetle and Geometry. It tells about students, as in the second book. It’s called the Beginning of the Fishing Patrol.

The work turned out to be so successful and fascinating that the metropolitan "Children's Literature" undertook to publish it. An interesting book by a children's writer was released in large quantities. Illustrations for this story were drawn by Evgeny Tikhonovich Migunov. He was a famous illustrator of not only books, but also cartoons. Also, Evgeny Tikhonovich painted cartoons.
Do you need a career?
Perhaps this famous children's writer asked himself such a question when he decided to leave Voronezh, a large city, again to his outback - to Borisoglebsk. Here he had an elderly mother and almost no prospects for work.
Once in Borisoglebsk representatives of the film studio came to the writer. They brought Yuri Tretyakov the script of his book "The beginning of the fishing patrol." But the author did not consent to the film adaptation of the story. He said that the script was written in the wrong language, not in the right way.
If only the writer agreed to this proposal, then modern viewers would have the opportunity to learn about his works, to see them on the screen. Then Yuri Fedorovich Tretyakov would have paid copyright. And so, he was interrupted by casual earnings, then depression rolled over.
