It is a story about loss, the power of imagination that can make up for this loss, and the hardships of reconciling the world of a lonely girl with the world of an equally lonely dad. This is the story of a magical mountain - the ever-snow-covered Kilimanjaro, which had a huge impact on the life of a 7-year-old girl from a village where nothing ever happens... It's also a story about family relationships and the fact that grandma doesn't always have to know how to bake cookies.
