Agniya Lvovna Barto, (Russian: А́гния Льво́вна Барто́; IPA: [ˈaɡnʲɪjə ˈlʲvovnə bɐrˈto] ; February 17 [O.S. February 4] 1906 Moscow - April 1, 1981 Moscow), was a Russian Soviet poet and children's writer of Jewish origin.

Biography

Agniya was born Getel Leybovna Volova to the Jewish family of a Moscow veterinarian named Lev Nikolaevich Volov. She studied at a ballet school. She liked poetry and soon started to write her own, trying to imitate Anna Akhmatova and Vladimir Mayakovsky. She read her poetry at the graduation ceremony from the ballet school. Among the guests was the Minister of Education Anatoly Lunacharsky who remarked that instead of becoming a ballerina she should be a professional poet. According to legend, despite the fact that all of Agniya's poetry at that time was about love and revolution, Lunacharsky predicted that she would become a famous children's poet.

Agniya married Italian-Russian electrical engineer and poet Pavel Barto. Some of her children's poems were published under two names: Agniya Barto and Pavel Barto. In 1925 she published her first books: Chinese boy Wan-Lin (Китайчонок Ван-Линь) and Mishka the Petty Thief (Мишка-Воришка). Subsequently she published The First of May (Первое мая), 1926 and Brothers (Братишки), 1928 which received a positive review from Korney Chukovsky. After publishing a book of poetic miniatures for toddlers entitled Toys (Игрушки) 1936, she suddenly became one of the most popular children's authors, with millions of published copies.
