ONE UNUSUAL FAMILY, ONE UNFORGETTABLE SUMMER . . . A true story brought to life by superstar bestselling duo, Eoin McLaughlin and Emma Chichester Clark, paired together for the very first time!

'A smile on every page, a joy from beginning to end. A truly adorable book.' Michael Morpurgo
'A very special book. I loved it.' Polly Dunbar, author/illustrator of Penguin

The caravan was in a field behind a hedge.
And beyond the hedge was the sea.
The caravan smelled old and damp.
The caravan smelled like you were on holiday . . .

Eoin lives with his Nana, and every year they make their way to their caravan for the whole of the summer . . . There Eoin has the freedom to go off with his friends for hours on end, and to roam the beach. One day the waves come up really high - will they get through to the other side?

A warm, cosy story full of laughter and adventure about one epic summer spent in a caravan. An homage to alternative families, based on the author's own childhood.
