Publisher's summary
The story of Noah's ark is told in this book through the journey of the olive branch brought by the dove. How Olivia, the olive branch, chooses to give up her life in order to bring hope to the people tells the story from a different perspective. There is a joyous ending not only for Noah and all the people and animals on the ark, but in a wonderful twist, for the olive branch, too.
All proceeds from this book will be donated to the Boston Children's Hospital.

Story
In The Summer Book Tove Jansson distills the essence of the summer - its sunlight and storms - into 22 crystalline vignettes. This brief novel tells the story of Sophia, a six-year-old girl awakening to existence, and Sophia's grandmother, nearing the end of hers, as they spend the summer on a tiny unspoiled island in the Gulf of Finland. The grandmother is unsentimental and wise, if a little cranky; Sophia is impetuous and volatile, but she tends to her grandmother with the care of a new parent.
