小镇是海边

这本图书中的墨水和水彩插图的光明和阴影完全唤起了海洋的矿业社区，其中一个男孩描述了他家的日常生活。The brief text has a slow-paced rhythm, repeating the words: ‘And deep down under that sea, my father is digging for coal’ reflecting the centrality this has for him as he expects that one day he will carry on the family tradition of becoming a miner. A note at the end of the book indicates that the setting is the 1950s when this would very likely have been the case.

图片就像相机镜头。有时，他们专注于细节或仅显示场景的一部分，在其他时候使用广角镜头，特别是当描绘闪闪发光的海时。一系列男孩的照片在秋千上表现出真正的运动感。一本闻名和重新审视的书。
