Summer vacation has just begun, and Felice has just discovered he won't be going to the beach this year: Mom and Dad have to work, and he'll have to stay home. Too bad he asked Santa for the sea, only to receive in return a diving mask, which he now wears constantly, like a window opening onto the missing water. But with the help of a traveling uncle, a chatterbox-loving little sister, and many friends, Felice may find a solution: if the sea doesn't come to him, he'll bring it home. Michele D'Ignazio (Felice and the Invention of the Sea, Rizzoli) recounts a summer he invents from scratch, with imagination replacing suitcases.
