Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreTable of Contents:
The story is of a young boy on a journey of discovering his identity, making peace with his family and beginning to heal from his anxiety.
The backstory is his mother got pregnant at an early age, gave him to his paternal grandmother who raised him as his mother. He never met his bio mother, and always thought his bio father was an uncle away at college.
The plot evolves as the boy discovers his caregiver is not his mother, as she is dying of an illness. This is within the setting of him becoming a teenager, and also being introduced to and having to live with his father for the first time.
The narrative continues with the boy beginning mental health therapy, and recreating dynamics with his father, exploring his place in the world as he realizes he has no real parental figure.
The boy’s desire for connection, anxieties of not having a container of a home, and search for belonging are complicated with issues of being bullied on social media and at school.
The journey concludes as he learns to forgive, creates his own narrative, and allows his own healing to begin.
