Dandelion Wine

“Hold summer in your palm, pour summer into a glass, a very tiny one, of course, because children are entitled to a little sip with a hint of bitterness; take a sip of summer from the goblet — and in... your veins, the season will change.” Young Douglas immerses himself completely in the summer of 1928. He is stalked by a mysterious ravine, where the Lost One is hiding. Together with his younger brother, Douglas tries to save the witch Taro. Old Colonel Freeley transforms into a time machine and takes the boys on a journey through the days of his youth. In the neighbor's garage, the Machine of Happiness quietly rumbles, and in Douglas's soul grows the conviction that elderly people were never children. All these stories are like a handful of dandelions. From them, Bradbury made a bittersweet wine, placed it in a book, and put it on the shelf, so that at the right moment, everyone could taste the flavor of summer and life.
