He sat, clasping his knees, and almost cried, and then - such a frivolous greetings by a marker on the wall. He offended the only school friend, his mother lies in the hospital, at home only a father, with whom he had not communicated before - how much? Eleven years!.. "There is me! Will it go? " - The boy wrote a little lower.

This momentary reaction, a simple weakness of character pushed usually slow and indecisive - a snail! - The hero to adventures, discoveries and new friends. Sometimes you need so little to change a lot: just answer someone's non-binding question!

Tatyana Menoshchikova's debut book “My father lit stars”, with all the emphasized modernity, is completely deprived of an era. Those difficulties faced by a twelve -year -old hero, the psychological details that are replete with the text, even the nicknames that schoolchildren give out to their teachers and each other - all this is easy to present in classical school stories. It is not surprising that the book leaves an amazing feeling: the last page was just left behind-but it seems as if this story has been with you since childhood.
