The Lost Bus

Famous children's writer, living classic Vadim Rokotov hardly writes new poems: he is constantly occupied with radio broadcasts, literary award banquets, organizational committee meetings, manuscripts of young authors… And, to be honest, it's quite scary to create something fundamentally different... when you have such an established reputation.
If only one could turn back time, get a second chance… To become again an unknown emerging author, storming editorial offices with experimental poems, to fall in love at last. It sounds tempting! Do you want it? Please… But what if the new life turns out to be unsuccessful?
Yelena Lipatova is the author of poetry and prose books for children and teenagers, a laureate of the S. Marshak Prize, winner of the S. Mikhalkov competition, and finalist of the K. Chukovsky contest. "The Lost Bus" is a poignant book about time, growing up, and creativity. The collage by Anna Znaenok, which adorns the cover of the book, reminds us that each of our lives consists of many fragments of memories, from which it is not so easy to part.
For youth.
