Children's & Educational; Poetry (Children's&YA)

A beautiful first collection of poems by two-time Kate Greenaway Medal-winner Shirley Hughes.

In this wonderful collection of poems, by best-loved and Kate Greenaway Medal-winner, Shirley Hughes, Katie and her little brother Olly

go out and about, romping through the changing seasons. They take pleasure in the different

elements and weather conditions – sunshine, wind, rain, mist and even snow. From the joys of the seaside to the miseries of the sickbed, this exuberant

volume captures to perfection the world of childhood.
