Synopsis

Seven-year-old Lenna’s best friends are Mirtel, Emma, and Saskia, who all live on the same street. They’re such good friends that Mirtel’s mother calls them sisters. Hanging out together is a blast, especially when the summer holidays roll around. The girls hold garden parties, play ‘cherry scarecrow’, tend to the flower garden, and fetch fresh eggs from the neighbouring farm to bake delicious cakes. Also living nearby are Mart, Oskar, and Siim, whom the girls like to spy upon, occasionally play with, or even get into some light mischief together. Life is never a bore on their street near the city limits!
