A year in the life of two residents of Shchepki-Matilda Bay, where there are only three houses—nine-year-old Trille, who tells us this story, and his neighbor and classmate Lena—contains an incredible number of events and adventures: funny, touching, dangerous... The idyllic life on a Norwegian farm is disrupted—but not destroyed—by dramatic events. But friendship, of course, proves stronger!
