McLaughlin, Eoin

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. Based on the author’s own childhood, the book offers homage to alternative families.
