A fascinating story about the life of a family, the problems of which are probably familiar to every reader: one lacks money, another lacks time, the third does not know what he wants, the fourth... In a word - a crisis. And if there is a crisis in your family, then... that’s good! Because a crisis, translated into Russian, is not just a turning point, it is an outcome, a decision, a difference, a trial and an opportunity. The opportunity to understand the most important thing, to gain something truly valuable. And if you take advantage of this opportunity, then crises will no longer happen. The heroes of this book had to travel halfway across the country for their lives to improve. Although you could just return to your present self. For children of middle and high school age, for family reading. For the work “Place of Power” Olga Kolpakova was awarded a diploma of the Third International Competition of Children's and Youth Fiction and Popular Science Literature named after. A. N. Tolstoy.
