"Schrödinger's School" explores what school, lessons, and camping trips will be like in a hundred or two hundred years, how space travel and technology will change our lives, and whether in the school of the future, people will take out double sheets of paper, leave their heads at home, and lose them to love.

ABOUT THE CREATION OF THE COLLECTION:
During the pandemic, writer Irina Lukyanova decided to write a story. "What should it be: fantasy? About love? About school?" she asked the Universe. Literary critic Alexey Kopeikin immediately responded: "Fantastic! About love! About school!" "Fantastic!" the children's writers rejoiced. "We want to too!" And so they rushed to write fantasy stories about school and love. The result was forty-eight stories by various authors, both established and emerging. We selected seven, in our opinion, the most interesting. We supplemented them with four experimental stories, written especially for this collection.
