| Publisher Description: Snap With their new cameras Snap a brother and sister Snap take pictures of their vacation. But when they look at their photographs they see: 1. The back of Dad's head2. Feet 3. A container of noodles That's it? Does 1 + 2 + 3 = summer vacation? What about how it felt to swim in the lake? What about the stories their cousins told and the taste of a just-invented strawberry and whipped cream dessert? For those memories--the memories of summer and the memories of family that mean the most--they need to look someplace else. Someplace deep inside. Someplace permanent. |
