A moving novel about childhood's power and simplicity transcending barriers of age and class.

Romain, Momo, and Lila are readying to spend the summer riding their bikes around the housing project where they live. But the heat is unbearable, and all that cement offers no respit. But there is shade and coolness to be had in the woods they spot on the other side of the vacant lot. The three children set out on a secret mission of exploration that holds surprising encounters in store.
