A group of children live far inland, where the sea is only a faraway dream. But what if this dream could be reachable? What if the distance is only an excuse for lazy people? What if it just requires an act of will? A group of determined kids embark on an adventurous trip, full of discoveries and curious characters, on two extraordinary handmade vehicles. The novel is written in the first person, from the perspective of a blind kid that is part of the travelling gang, which entails a engaging literary challenge. The illustrations highlight the voyage’s poetic and tender tone.
