Stories from the Last Desk

The two stories included in this collection have long occupied honorable places on bookshelves — both in families and in libraries. And this is not surprising! After all, Viktoria Lederman brilliantly describes the experiences of the characters and suggests the... best way out of the situation.
Both works were previously published as two separate books. We prepared this new edition at the request of readers.
The stories from the collection «There Will Be No Lessons!» are dedicated to elementary school students, from the first to the fourth grade. What unites shy first-graders with veterans from the fourth «B»? Incorrigible hooligans with diligent good students? They are all thrilled by the phrase «There Will Be No Lessons!» — even those who love to learn!
At the center of the second story included in the collection is the eternal plot — love.
«Just Eleven! or Shury-Mury in Fifth "D"» is written in the form of alternating monologues of three main characters. For the sake of love — the first in life! — Egor and Nikita are ready to buy a huge bouquet of flowers with their saved money, shower the one-and-only with gifts, miraculously get a ticket to the concert she dreams of! Only, the friends fell in love with the same girl — the new girl in fifth «D», Angelina...
So, it's time to dive into reading: friendship, truancy, and even a love triangle — any adventures with Viktoria Lederman are always captivating!
