Mouse's First Summer

with audio recording

Illustrated by Buket Erdogan

About The Book

Mouse and Minka invite YOU to celebrate summer with a picnic in the park.

Roll down the hill on tickly green grass.

Fly kites fluttery high in the sky.

And don't forget juicy watermelon!

But before it's time to go home, a summer surprise sparkles in the sky.

CRACKLE, POP, BOOM!

What's making that sound?
