description: Have you ever wanted to bring elements of your vacation back home with you? The smell in the air, an exotic flower, the way the sun hit your window as you were waking up? How would you bring those elements home with you? This is the dilemma young Marissa faces as she prepares to leave her grandmother s place at the seashore. Effervescent and mesmerizing illustrations by Maud Durland, perfectly illustrate this gentle story. Told in simple, yet vivid and poetic prose, Anne Renaud s endearing story demonstrates the power of one s imagination and celebrates the notion of self-empowerment.
