Eight Blue Lanes

The main characters of the book, first grader Marina and fifth grader Anton, are engaged in swimming. They are in for many adventures and even challenges, not only in the pool with eight blue lanes but also at school and... in everyday life. An exciting and touching tale by Sofia Mogilevskaya is about true friendship and how sports help kids overcome their childhood complexes and build relationships with their peers. It teaches courage and honesty in any circumstances. Sofia Mogilevskaya wrote about her book: «This tale is about my little friends, swimmers from the children's sports school. I spent many days in the pool, attending their classes. I rejoiced in their successes, was saddened by their failures, and watched 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 friends than about themselves.»
