Waking up in the morning and discovering that you are living the days in reverse is a more serious thing than «Groundhog Day»! Sixth grader Gleb Elizarov merely scratched the date «May 23» on an ancient wall - and went...
with a couple of classmates first to May 22, then to May 21, 20, 19...
Recently transferred to a new school, Gleb, the lazy honor student Yura Karasev, and the homebound Lena Zyuzina see some upsides in reliving yesterday's and the day before yesterday's events. You can retake the final exam, avoid a fight with a bully, or even spend all your pocket money on treats without remorse - because in the morning, the bills and coins will find their way back into your wallet!
But the further the students get from May 23, the weaker the hope to return back to the future becomes - and how can you erase the inscription made a week from now? An excursion to an archaeological find supposedly related to the Mayan civilization became the beginning of an adventure for the three kids, a story that will not convince any adult. Or will there be someone who believes them?
«Maya Calendar» — the debut novel of Victoria Lederman, which immediately gained success (special prize of the V. Krapivin competition, 2014). The author masterfully shows how the characters of modern schoolchildren change under the influence of a common misfortune. The mystery of ancient tribes, a mistake leading to fateful events, hostility with classmates, and strong friendship forever — all this is present in this book. «Maya Calendar» has become a national bestseller over the years, has been translated into six languages, and is skillfully adapted into a film by director Victoria Panasyutina.
