About This Book

A group of four young siblings spend a vacation at their aunt’s country farm, traveling by train and boat and settling into rural routines. The narrative follows a sequence of small adventures and mishaps — rescuing animals, learning to milk, foraging for berries, coping with a raft wreck and a brief lost-in-the-woods scare — through which they practice cooperation and responsibility. Gentle humor and everyday chores lead to new pets, picnic outings, and gradually growing confidence as the children adapt to farm life.
