The novel, which makes you feel the healing power of friendship and flowers, offers a warm reading experience full of childhood energy. Living on the farm, far from the crowds, Andrea thinks she will have an ordinary summer, except for the fact that she learns that she is dyslexic. However, their days become more colorful than they expected with the arrival of holiday tenants Nico and his family. Two friends run around in the countryside and make discoveries.
