About her story "Eight Blue Lanes", Sofia Mogilevskaya wrote: "This story is about my little friends, the swimmers of the children's sports school. I spent many days at the pool, attending the classes. I rejoiced in their successes, was saddened by their failures, and observed how the friendship that connected them grew and strengthened. It was true friendship. Such friendship helps people become better, kinder, and more honest, and most importantly - to care more about their comrades than about themselves".
