The Child and the River

Meer over het boek

This simple and moving tale is the story of Pascalet and his river. He was forbidden to go near it, but once or twice every year the flood waters ran swiftly over the low fields to Pascalet's door. From time to time the river called to him in the shape of Bargabot the fisherman, who told Pascalet of its fish and beaches and lonely islands. This lovely tale, which catches the magic of untamed nature, speaks to young and adult alike.
