Illustrated by
Peter Catalanotto.
On the last morning of their summer vacation, Dylan and his mother, who's pregnant, enjoy their tradition of "catching the sun." As they wait at the shore for the sun to break the horizon, Dylan anxiously contemplates the changes a new baby will bring. Catalanotto's watercolor illustrations add warmth to this reassuring if sentimental story of the unwavering mother-son bond.
