Meer over het boek

Set in a serene summer day, the story unfolds in the Maynards' yard, where four children swing together. Kingdon Maynard, the fourteen-year-old eldest, holds a position of authority among his three younger sisters, who regard his decisions as law. Despite the tranquil atmosphere, a subtle shift occurs as King begins to seek adventures with other boys, leaving his sisters to grapple with the changes in their dynamic. This gentle exploration of childhood relationships and the transition toward independence paints a vivid picture of family life.
