Princess Dzhavakha. Story.

 



Lydia Alexeyevna Charskaya (1875-1937) is one of the most popular children's writers of the early 20th century. After the 1917 revolution, her works were banned, and recognition returned to the author only in the 1990s, almost a century later.
The adventure... story «Princess Dzhavakha» has gained new readers today. The life of the students of a closed institution, described in the story, is little different from the lives of modern schoolchildren. Only the «decorations» change. Here and there, there is room for insults, offenses, bullying, pranks, disrespect for teachers-mentors and for one another. Misunderstandings and disputes with parents, false friends, getting used to a new group - the author raises issues relevant not only for teenage girls. Many children go through this. The eternal problem of choice - to be like everyone else or to remain an outcast - is relevant at all times.
For middle school age.
