Seo sceal faoi athru, fas agus dochas ata a insint ag cailin og nach dtuigeann cad ata ag tarlu. Ta teamai eagsula sa sceal; an gaol ata ag forbairt idir an triur paisti, cinealtas strainseiri, an tacaiocht agus an gra i dteaghlach ata cabhair uathu agus ata adhuil le teacht air.

Young Susan tells this gripping and moving tale about the summer when she was eight years old, and her brother Bruno nearly drowns in the sea.

She gets him back to shore where he becomes seriously ill. While he is in hospital, Susan and sister Peanut are often left alone. This is a story about change, growth and hope told through the eyes of a child who does not understand what is happening.

It covers the developing relationship of the three children, the kindness of strangers, the support and love in a family that needs assistance, and is fortunate enough to find it.
