For the sake of love - the first in life! - Yegor and Nikita are ready for anything. Buy a huge bouquet of flowers with the accumulated money, fill the one and only one with gifts, miraculously get a ticket to the concert she wants - please! That's just friends fell in love with the same girl - new in the fifth "D", Angelina. Why are there tickets and flowers: which of them is ready to risk their lives for the sake of their beloved, and what is more expensive - love or male friendship? It doesn't matter that they are only eleven: feelings are real! And the non-standard nature of the object of their love only proves that everything in this life happens in an adult way, and this is not at all easy.The new book by Victoria Lederman is written in the form of alternating monologues of the three main characters. The narrative switches either to the reflections of Angelina, who craves attention and deftly manipulates her classmates, or to the throwing of the good-natured hooligan Yegor, or to the experiences of the reflective "nerd" Nikita. The reader, on the other hand, gets a rare opportunity in children's literature to understand and feel each character "from the inside", without associating himself with just one person. Following the evolution of Yegor, Nikita and Angelina, their thoughts and feelings is a fascinating and exciting process!Eternal for adult and unusual for children's literature, the plot - a love triangle - is experienced by its participants at the age of eleven as sharply as as in older age. Through the recognizable realities of our days - supermarkets, social networks, computer games - details that have migrated from children's classics appear: boyish heroism, a sense of elbow, characters tempered from page to page. And the story about modern fifth-graders suddenly turns out to be a bridge to inner growth and maturation.“Only eleven! or Shura-Mura in the Fifth "D" "continues the tradition of the first two books by Victoria Lederman, "Calendar ma (y) I" and "Freshman": it is just as cinematic and eventful, just as non-edifying and inviting to discussion. The previous novels by the writer, published by CompassGuide, have become hits and have already taken pride of place on the bookshelves - somewhere next to Anatoly Aleksin and Viktor Dragunsky. The new story is aimed at teenagers and will surely quickly find its fans.2nd edition, revised.

Книга Всего одиннадцать!
Эта книга Виктории Ледерман оставила у меня смешанные впечатления. С одной стороны, она прекрасно передает все сложности детских чувств и переживаний, что делает её очень близкой и понятной для читателей. Чередующиеся монологи Егора, Никиты и Ангелины позволяют глубже понять каждого персонажа и их мотивацию. Особенно понравилось, как автор показывает, что в одиннадцать лет чувства могут быть такими же сильными и настоящими, как у взрослых. Однако, с другой стороны, иногда сюжет кажется немного затянутым, и некоторые моменты могли бы быть более динамичными. Тем не менее, книга затрагивает важные темы дружбы и любви, и я бы рекомендовал её подросткам, которые ищут что-то искреннее и трогательное.
