About this product

Product Information

The Summer Book is a fresh, vivid and magical novel about seemingly endless summers of discovery. An elderly artist and her six year old granddaughter while away the summer together, on a tiny island in the Gulf of Finland, their solitude disturbed only by migrating birds, sudden storms and an occasional passing boat. Gradually, the two learn to adjust to each other's fears, foibles and yearnings for independence, and a fierce yet understated love emerges - one that engulfs not only the summer inhabitants, but the very island itself. Tove Jansson writes with a special toughness, and with a quiet, dry sense of humour, about a small girl and her grandmother, who as kindred spirits share the long days together.

    Very different book

    Very different book. Entertaining in places. Glad I read it but wasn't popular with everyone in our book group

  • Fast fun gritty adventures

    About a child and her grandmother visiting a tiny remote coastal island in Finland, compelling! Easy short chapters - lots of adventure, tension, bravery, funny conversations - good to pick up and put down on a journey. An insight into the incredible summers of a cold Nordic country.
