The Summer Book

Work:: The Summer Book (S1208096276)

Set on a remote island in Finland, six year-old Sophia and her grandmother while away the summer months together, and gradually a fierce yet understated love emerges between the two ? one that encompasses not just their relationship but the island itself, with its mossy rocks, windswept firs and unpredictable seas. This year is the centenary of the birth of Tove Jansson, much-loved creator of the Moomins, and this unique story captures much of the writer's own experience. Anyone who has ever known a grandparent or a grandchild will recognise the truths in this extraordinary description of life and love and the struggle we all face, whatever our age, to understand them. This is a perfect summer show for grandchildren, grandparents and everyone in between.
