Celebrate summer and the wonderful connections between kids and grandparents with this gentle picture book from Caldecott medalist Kevin Henkes. Bo was spending the summer with Grandpa. They walked and fished and made things together. They celebrated Christmas together—a very special summer Christmas. But best of all, they talked and laughed and talked some more. And when they finally saw the shooting star at the end of the summer, there was no question the their wishes would be the same. “Warm and gently told.” — School Library Journal
