A book full of summer. John and Vestri are spending the summer on Grandma and Grandpa's farm: three new puppies, a fishing trip and some very real and recognisable behaviour. Meindert DeJong's light touch with complex feelings give this simple story that bit extra which makes it a real gem for reading aloud or (for slightly older readers) alone.
