This book took me back to my childhood and sweet memories. - Rated
Lemonade Sun reminded me of my own childhood; I too, grew up in the fifties. It brought back so many memories. I could almost smell the fireflies that we collected in glass jars, and the thrill of being able to do double-dutch longer than the other kids. The lemonade stands, bubbles, dragonflies and jacks are all dear to me. It certainly is a book that children will love, and adults will cherish. My personal favorite is Summer Swinging. The illustrations are incredible! It is truly a fun book for all ages.

Lemonade Sun Equals Lemonade Fun! - Rated
As the summer days get busier and my 21 month old daughter pushes her energies, I welcome the moment that we reach for this lovely book and she soaks deeper into my arms. This is the perfect unwinding book as it takes you on a dancing journey through summer days and then retreats you into the night. The creative use of words in poetry will grasp your attention and allow you some freedom of expression to excite and/or relax your little one. The illustrations are a beautiful and refreshing addition which alone allows for some parental freedom as well. You'll see what I mean when you get started with your own Lemonade Sun. My daughter is captivated for the entire book. This one always works for bedtime at our house. I am now a true fan of Rebecca Kai Dotlich and look forward to her next work.
