When angels rest

Everything could have turned out differently if Alina had not ended up in Margarita Semyonovna's class - Marsem. It was she who helped the boys believe in themselves by performing a feat of feats against the Black Dragon. It was she who organized the first ball for the girls, where Cinderellas turned into real princesses. It was she who taught her students to count with their fingers and toes, to love good books, to be friends... And Marsem also told them about angels - that they should rest. But they can only do this when their charges do not do anything bad and do not get into difficult situations. After all, angels have so many things to do around the world, which means they need to be let go where help is really needed.

But before Alina found out about this, many events had happened in her life: V.G.’s visits, the disappearance of magnets from the lockers, unrequited love, and the appearance of a new student who disrupted the usual rhythm of fourth-grade life.
