Loaded with vibrant and cheerful illustrations, this engaging tale shares a child's perspective of time spent during the warmest season. Katie wears a hat and applies sunscreen to go outdoors now that summer is here. In the hot sunlight, she picks cherries with her dad, reads a book under an umbrella with her mom, and even gets to cool off in a wading pool. As her enjoyable day draws to a close, the family gathers for one last outdoor activity--a delightful picnic at sunset.
