From 13 years.

"They are three. No, actually the big four with absent, the person who created the legend, invented language, and established the rules of life on Pallakch their secret island. The time of day and overnight summer, the boy and the girls bring the boy to stay in this mysterious place in the middle of the water. But to have access to this idyllic haven where the trees have names of sages, students must pass several tests of initiation. A late summer for a late childhood. The loss of innocence and no return to the country's serious and imagination bridled. "

To integrate the tribe of a secret island, the 'boy way" must perform tests because "being a member of the club does not just happen, everyone has had to confront whether the really wanted. "

Guided and accompanied by two other children who introduced the rules life of this mysterious island and Pallakch, the imaginary language of this strange place.

Presented as rituals, initiatory ordeals experienced by the boy in late summer are very similar to the rites of passage ... a journey into adolescence.

They all live in the shadow of "great" absent, protective and reassuring. With him, nothing could happen to them and thanks to him, the island became "the big island, the island of adults."

Dominique Richard's writing touches readers of all ages although this piece is aimed at young audiences. The short forms and interrogative alternate with longer stories ... to the delight of readers!
