Come summer, autumn or winter, a little boy is going to make the best of it.
Nothing is better than summer, swimming every day and eating ice cream. But a little boy's big sister has BIG news. She tells him that summer is going to end soon ... and winter is coming! When winter comes, she says, it will be cold … and dark … and rain all the time. They’ll be stuck on the sofa for days and won’t even dream of eating ice cream...
From author-illustrator Simona Ciraolo, this is a celebration of the changing of the seasons, showing just how much joy can be found around each sunny – or snowy – corner.
