Two friends make decisions about their summertime activities and adventures. Do they want to do cannonballs or float in the pool? Is this a firefly or fireworks night? Soft illustrations and limited text accessibly present compatible girls engaged in recognizable activities.

Joy and Chip wake early for a full day of play. Inside, outside. Riding bikes, reading books. Taking turns, sharing treats. And no day is complete without creating an adventure with their imaginations. Chip is Blind. Joy has sight. Their day is filled with so much more than play. They see the world together. Dana Meachen Rau describes a simple, joyful day between siblings celebrating the senses beyond sight — the sounds, smells, tastes, and textures that make playing together play so much fun.
