"A vibrant and sophisticated ode to nature."-Kirkus Reviews
(starred review) "A wonderful read-aloud."-School Library Journal
(starred review) From Caldecott Medal and Newbery Honor winner
Kevin Henkes and acclaimed painter Laura Dronzek, the bestselling
and award-winning creators of Winter Is Here, When Spring Comes,
and In the Middle of Fall, this sturdy board book about summer
celebrates the sights, sounds, and smells of the season. Bees buzz,
birds sing, and children roll in the grass and feel the heat of the
summer sun. With striking verbal imagery, repetition, and
alliteration, Kevin Henkes introduces basic concepts of language
and the summer season. Laura Dronzek's glowing paintings
beautifully illustrate the wonders of summer. In the Middle of
Fall, Winter Is Here, When Spring Comes, and Summer Song make for a
beautiful quartet of seasonal-themed picture books to share at home
or in the classroom. Ideal for introducing the season, for story
time, and for bedtime reading.
"Dear Kids, A long time ago, when you were little, Mom and I took
you to where we wanted to build a house. . . . I remember there was
one tree, however, that the three of you couldn't stop staring at.
. . ."
After the family spares him from the builders, Steve the tree
quickly works his way into their lives. He holds their underwear
when the dryer breaks down, he's there when Adam and Lindsay get
their first crushes, and he's the centerpiece at their outdoor
family parties. With a surprising lack of anthropomorphizing, this
is a uniquely poignant celebration of fatherhood, families, love,
and change.

finger trail lift-the-flap book!
