Martín is looking forward to summer vacation so he can visit his grandfather in the countryside. With no school and long days ahead, the boy knows he will have incredible adventures.

Thanks to it, any walk in the woods becomes an expedition to hunt dinosaurs, a trip to the river can end with an alien encounter, and a quiet afternoon turns into an epic battle against mythological monsters. Humor and surprise accompany every page of this comic, where reality and fantasy blend without limits.
