[Christine · Rating 4 out of 5]

Hovedpersonen var et sykt barn som var mye inn og ut av sykehus, var mye sengeliggende og ble matet, pleiet og stelt av stemoren. Uten at faren og stemoren vet det, begynner hovedpersonen å gå i båtbyggeriet. Her begynner han å fortelle historie om faren, butikken og seg selv. Klok, lavmælt og mesterlig skrevet.
