Something is always happening to Vasya Petrov and Petya Vasechkin. Not a day goes by without a new story. And there is nothing they won't do to get the attention of the top student Masha Startseva! They decide to become lifeguards—only to nearly drown themselves, with Masha having to come to their rescue. They sing serenades under her balcony. And—straight out of a fantasy—they transform into strongmen and start getting nothing but A's. For primary and middle school-aged children. Five reasons to read this book: 1. Every parent knows the characters of this book from the 1983 children's musical comedy—and now they can introduce them to their own children. 2. Vladimir Alenikov is an author of books for adults and children, as well as a screenwriter and director. 3. This edition contains not only stories about the shy Vasya Petrov and the joker Petya Vasechkin, but also a collection of their poems, "Petrov and Vasechkin's Rhymatism." 4. Illustrations by Yulia Korolkova that are witty and modern, yet retain the school atmosphere of the 80s. 5. Fun fact: Petrov and Vasechkin first appeared in the "Yeralash" newsreel, where Vladimir Alenikov was working as a director and screenwriter at the time.
