Publisher's Summary

Welcome to the Land of Icy Darkness and the Land of the Flaming Sun. In this energy-charged tale about how the weather was made, King Icicle tries to challenge the radiance of Queen Goldenlight as he struggles to dominate the earth. But an important lesson of balance and compromise emerges from the storm, and the king and queen agree to work together to establish the rotating seasons of winter and summer.

Children will love Mary Lister's multi-layered story, featuring a hilarious cast of characters, including Danny Drizzle and Harry Hurricane, with valuable messages all the way through. Learn an important lesson about balance and acceptance in this exciting tale about how people learn to share the earth, and how the rotating seasons of winter and summer are born.
