SUMMER – A Solstice Story written by Kelsey E. Gross and published by Simon & Schuster

Today is the longest day of the year.

Summer solstice is here.

It’s Early morning, and the forest seems silent, but life is all around. As the sun shines through the pines, one by one the animals wake.

Owl, Squirrel, Raccoon, Bear, Sparrow, Rabbit, Woodpecker, and Deer gather to celebrate summer and offer loving wishes as they send their young into the world.

SUMMERTIME IS HERE FOR ALL TO SHARE.

The Solstice Series

From Kelsey Gross and New York Times bestselling artist Renata Liwska comes a companion to the stunningly beautiful and lyrical Winter telling the story of a group of animal friends who come together on the Solstice to celebrate the wonder of the summer.

The long summer days are here, and in the peace and stillness of the morning, the forest seems quiet and asleep. But there is always life everywhere if you know where—and when—to look. Solstice is here! On the longest day of the year, friends Squirrel, Raccoon, Bear, Sparrow, Rabbit, Woodpecker, and Deer gather to share the gifts of new light and life that summer brings.
