Wandering around

(Portuguese edition)

The boy in this book often goes out for a stroll with his grandfather.

It’s not about a walk in the company of each other, but something quite different.

The grandfather always walks on ahead, engrossed in his own affairs; the boy skips along behind, busy taking in all that comes across his path. Whether it’s mounds of sand or stones, worms or puddles of rain, everything is interesting, everything is a reason to stop in wonder.
