The Adventures of Dennis (Russian: Денискины рассказы, Deniskiny rasskazy) is a collection of short stories for children written by Soviet author Viktor Dragunsky.

They deal with the life of an eight-year-old boy in Moscow in the late 1950s and 1960s,[1] modelled on the author's son.

[2] The stories show a wide range of tone, with Dragunsky mixing the poetic, the satirical and the sentimental.

[2] A 1999 review in the New Zealand Slavonic Journal describes the stories as "beautifully written" and offering "a rich psychological profile of Russian children".

[3] The Adventures of Dennis were popular in India, where they existed in English and Marathi translations.
