Bye, Salmon!

Alka’s life is like a kaleidoscope of events! Adventures find her on their own, and if they don’t, she invents them—just like she wrote the song about salmon that the whole school sang. No one realizes how complicated life is for this cheerful, witty girl. Why does Alka cry at night? What will comfort her? Who will become her real friend, and who will the heroine of this story lose forever? The exciting and touching tale “Bye-Bye, Salmon!” will answer all your questions. Together with Alka, you’ll live through a slice of life from age eight to eleven and feel a lot. So deeply that you’ll never forget this girl… The author of the book is prose writer Yulia Lavryashina, who has written more than forty books for children and adults and is a laureate of the International Children’s Literature Prize named after V. P. Krapivin.
