A very funny illustrated children's story about loneliness, family, and nature.
Mrs. Smith is a self-made, lonely woman who, tired of seeing life getting crazier (how can it be that in winter we wear short sleeves in the morning and by afternoon my geraniums are freezing?), decides to embark on a journey on Christmas Day in search of a remote place where things are still as she remem-bers them.
But the arrival of Dr. Green (a scientist who invents machines to improve the environment) and her children A, B, and C will change her plans and, perhaps, her way of seeing life.
Written like an Advent calendar, from day 1 to day 25; day by day; adventure after adventure.
It facilitates the independent and shared reading.
