Delphine Perret recounts a summer like any other, spent as a child with her mother in her grandparents' house. But her artistic talent and an eternal capacity for childlike wonder make this the Best Summer Ever.
Mother and son make memories together: funny, tender, simple yet beautiful. Discovering birds, bugs, a spider in the bathtub, picking blackberries, learning to tie shoes... and many more. Moments every child will recognize (even those without grandparents in the countryside). Growing up takes time. This book is about a child finding their place in their family, nature, and the world.
