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.
One of the most-loved author–illustrators of our times, Shirley Hughes (1927–2022) won the Kate Greenaway Medal twice, the prestigious Eleanor Farjeon Award for her services to children’s literature and was awarded a CBE.
