Illustrated by
Zoe Persico.
Told in rhyme, this is a colorful tribute to summer and its many pleasures: red ice pops, yellow sunflowers, and even gray clouds that bring a sudden shower, leaving behind "a refreshing, cool breeze, / and silvery droplets that sparkle on trees." The cartoonlike digital illustrations are fairly slick but nevertheless capture the light and colors of a summer storm in an idyllic country setting.
