The novel 'The Kid and the River,' a classic of French children's literature, has been translated into forty languages and is rightfully considered one of the best works about the immeasurable role nature plays in each of our lives.
The river is free and strong, flows where it must, and obeys no one. But little Pasquale sits at home, languishing in the stuffiness and restrictions. Wouldn't it be great to catch a glimpse of this river, even if only for a moment? But a river is always a journey, and you can never emerge from it the same.
