Firefly Street. A Reading Book in English, Unadapted

Tally and Kate, living next door on Firefly Street, are teenage girls who are as different from each other as night and day. They have different families, different personalities, and different plans for the future, but they manage to become friends and provide each other with reliable support in any situation. It seemed that a friendship carried through decades would never be destroyed, but even among close people, quarrels can happen. What will prove stronger when it comes to life and death: compassion or pride, warm memories or mutual grievances?
The book has won the hearts of readers around the world and was successfully adapted into a film. The unadapted text of the novel is accompanied by comments and a glossary.
