Summer is almost over, and Iboris and Kuboris have one last adventure waiting: a visit to Grandma's house in the countryside! At Grandma's, mornings smell of warm pastries, chickens strut around the garden as if they own it, and cats come and go as they please. Together with their cousin Misha, the siblings feed the animals, chase a runaway hen named Pepper, make a no-bake biscuit cake, travel the whole world through Grandma's old atlas, and fall asleep under a sky full of shooting stars.
Inspired by the author's own childhood summers with her grandmother, The Summer Break is a warm, gentle story about family, kindness to animals, and the simple moments we remember forever. Book Two in the Iboris and Kuboris series, it can also be enjoyed on its own. Perfect for independent readers ages 7 to 10 and for cozy bedtime read-alouds.
