When the sun shines every day, it seems that snow will never fall - and there will always be summer, a river, and in the river the elusive silver pike. Two families live in an old German castle, and while the adults are busy with their own affairs, the lives of the children, Anna , Daniel and Lucas, goes on as usual. And it seems that it will always be like this. But gradually the children notice that something is wrong with the boys’ mother. She gets tired all the time, loses her hair, and one day she is taken to the hospital. And then pike fishing becomes the last hope for Daniel - it seems to him that if he catches a pike, his mother will definitely get better. Jutta Richter's story tells about the special method that children choose to cope with problems and experiences that they cannot always cope with. And how adults can help them cope with them. For Pike Summer, Jutta Richter was awarded the LUCHS Prize (2004), the Catholic Children's and Youth Book Award (2005), and the LesePeter Prize (2005). Published in Russian for the first time.
