The name of Marina Aromshtam on the cover is the key to proper adult education. Each of her books is a thread connecting the world of the child and the world of the adult. How to talk, how to teach, how to explain, how to fix and a million more “how” ... There are no ready-made recipes, there is simply the life of one person for whom pedagogy is not an empty sound and not dry textbooks. Her children are the most ordinary, they live in neighboring apartments, neighboring houses. Someone from an incomplete family, someone, on the contrary, everything is fine (but even for this it is shameful), someone brags without measure, someone interrupts and climbs forward, someone steals a purse from a teacher and swears that he did not do it, and someone tries to catch him. In general, the most ordinary children who pulled out a lucky ticket, and they got a sensitive and understanding mentor. They had the opportunity to meet in kindergarten, to survive all the troubles of childhood together, they, of course, could not part and in the first grade followed, hand in hand. They found a treasure with the keys to the school, opened invisible doors in the way of first-graders. The elementary classes flew by as one moment, a bright reflection of which will forever remain in the heart. There is much left behind: the incredible adventures in Tanais, and the most important conversations in the circle on the carpet, and someone’s defeats, fraternally divided into all. And what's ahead? Middle and high classes: pull the rope and jump into life!
