Das Sonnenblumenmädchen

The hardcover success with over 40,000 copies sold - now available for the first time as a paperback. This summer, it’s all about women - mothers, daughters, and friends. The old house with the swing in the overgrown garden is filled with giggles and whispers, joyful stories, and troubling secrets from the world beyond the holidays. But there is also a wonderful secret - Mathilde has fallen in love for the first time in her six-year life. With Remi. He is seven, a boy with an impressive gap in his teeth and a shirt that is much too big for him. Remi is spending the summer as a vacation child on the nearby farm. He knows everything about the goats, rabbits, and chickens, the tractors, and the harvest. Mathilde immerses herself in a completely new life, a whirlwind of emotions, jealousy, and dreams. Following the great successes of "The Lady in Blue" and "The Poppy Woman," Noëlle Châtelet captivates once again with this work.
