In contemporary Russian-language literature for children and teens, nearly all types of relationships with parents are represented — including close, sometimes confrontational, relationships with mothers; relationships with fathers that shape the heroines’ connections to their environment; the presence of the older generation — grandparents — in children’s lives; and relationships with adoptive parents. Through these books, we see the everyday lives of contemporary girls — both children and teens. In today’s digital age, interactions with fathers and mothers can take different forms: relationships with fathers are often shaped through more traditional, “analog” communication, while those with mothers may involve more modern means — such as blogs, where both mothers and daughters can take on the roles of bloggers.
