How different can three friends be? In this book for readers up to 6, the author of Diary of a Worm and Click Clack Moo: Cows That Type introduces Boom, a playful bear cub; Snot, a cautious, sweet-tempered snail; and Twitty, a robin who prefers to stay at home and work with yarn. When a powerful summer storm blows in, the friends will protect themselves in differing ways, but all with the goal of finding their way back to each other. Also the illustrator of Little Panda, Renata Liwska contributes adorable mixed media illustrations that minimize the setting and background, keeping the focus squarely on the animals' expressions, activities, and interactions.

"[This book is] serene, quietly joyous and utterly life-affirming."—Kirkus Reviews
