Abstract
The article deals with Russian historical researches of XX–XXI centuries that illustrated children’s everyday life behind the lines during World War II. There has recently been a surge of interest to the events of 1941–1945 among Russian historians and the general public, hence the significant amount of papers devoted to everyday life in wartime. Studies in wartime childhood are of great interest due to the fact that childhood of millions of children coincided with the war time. They worked as hard as adults to compensate for the lack of human resources in all spheres of national economy. As a result, most of the analyzed papers were devoted to various aspects of child labour issues. Other topics included school life, living conditions, and leisure time of young Siberians.

Summary
Аннотация: В статье рассматриваются работы отечественных исследователей, опубликованные на рубеже XX–XXI вв., освещающие повседневность детей и подростков сибирского тыла во время Великой Отечественной войны. Данное обстоятельство является причиной того, что большая часть рассмотренных в статье исследований посвящена именно трудовой повседневности подрастающего поколения, условиям труда, разнообразию видов работ, на которых были задействованы подростки. Что среди внушительного количества работ, посвященных событиям на фронте и в тылу, появляется все больше трудов, освещающих жизнь советского народа в указанный период в русле истории повседневности.
