Marusya Orlova was looking forward to this day: she finally became a first grader!
There are so many things for the little student! She will have to learn not only reading and writing, but also friendship, mutual assistance, and responsibility. So far, Marusya is far from succeeding, but she will definitely cope!
The story of Yevgeny Schwartz was written in the middle of the 20th century, but it is close and understandable to the modern reader. The era has changed, but the anxieties and experiences of little first-graders have remained the same.
The text is accompanied by expressive and lively illustrations by the wonderful artist Yulia Kazarnitskaya. They convey the emotions, events and experiences of the heroes of the story and immerse the reader in the atmosphere of the first school days.
