Description

Icebergs brighten
as the sky peels
itself of darkness
and stretches awake. . . .

Welcome,
Summer.
We've been waiting
for you.

Experience summer like you've never experienced it before by traveling to Antarctica with evocative poetry. The sun rises, ice melts, grass grows, seals squabble, whales sing, and young penguins slide, glide, and belly flop. Whimsical illustrations and additional facts accompany each poem to provide further details about the animals and the environment at the bottom of the world.

A very sweet picture book with poems and facts about the animals and geography of Antarctica. What made this really great was in addition to the poetry and pictures (both great) were the facts about the animals and environment and how both were being impacted by global climate change. Can't wait to get this one in my library.
