It was the summer of the year when the relatives came. The relatives stayed for weeks and weeks. They helped tend the garden and fixed the broken things. They ate up the strawberries and melons. We were always so busy hugging and eating and breathing together.

 

My Review:

This is such an intriguing and fun book to me.

The one thing I love about it is the illustrations! The pictures are all done with color pencils. The faces and the scenery are so serial.

It’s a cute book about love and family and I recommend it to families!
