New York Times bestselling author Eliza Wheeler's companion to A Cozy Winter Day welcomes readers into sun-dappled scenes of a cozy summer in Acorn Village, bringing the joys of summertime to refreshingly vivid life.

The animals of Acorn Village love spending summer days together. As soon as the sun comes up, they slip into shorts and sunsuits and run outside to enjoy an abundance of cozy activities, whether it's putting up a playhouse, snacking in the strawberry patch, partaking in a picnic, or napping in a leafy nook. And when the day heats up, who can resist cooling off in a sparkling swimming hole before drying off in a cozy sun-kissed towel. When the sun disappears from the sky, it's time to gather round the campfire to share stories and marshmallows and fall asleep under the stars.

Eliza Wheeler's enchanting illustrations capture all the magic of long summer days outside, and readers will feel right at home as they pore over each and every cozy, comforting scene.
