Summer fading new friends' faces lighten the way home. Summer has arrived—and so has Koo, Stillwater the Panda's haiku-speaking young nephew. When Stillwater encourages Koo and their friends Addy, Michael, and Karl to help a grouchy neighbor in need, their efforts are rewarded in unexpected ways. Jon J. Muth's warm, engaging story and his luminous watercolors are as fresh and magical as a summer breeze. Readers of all ages will be disarmed by this tale of compassion and friendship that reaffirms the importance of our ties to one another.
