There is a blue hut located by the bay.
Pelicans fly by and orange foxes play.
All year round, the cabin awaits summer,
Summer is here and the little girl is back.

The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the little girl is finally here.
The hut whistled, hummed, and glowed.

The girl will cling to the window and stare at the sea.
She said softly: "You are my favorite place."

Love and shared memories make a house a "home"

Pelicans fly and foxes play on the bay. A blue house on the shore is a place where the little girl's family will visit every summer vacation. On a sunny summer day, the bay is filled with the singing of seagulls, the smell of delicious pancakes and sunscreen lotion, and endless outdoor activities. The family will fish, ride bicycles, and catch fireflies... At night, the rocking chairs creak and the waves sound. Coaxing the girl to sleep with her cabin.

Blue Cabin, Bay Girl, they grew up together, from summer to summer.

I don’t know from that year, summer came, but the girl didn’t come. The kitchen was quiet and the smell of syrup was gone. No one is rowing the boat, no one is playing the game. The empty hut is getting darker and darker. The hut waits and waits and waits...

This summer, the cabin looked brand new again. The girl, who has become a mother, took her gray-haired father, her husband, and children to her favorite childhood place to repaint the hut and restore the bright blue color to the hut. There were family, shells and singing in the hut again.

The girl once again sat at the window and looked into the distance. The view of the bay was still charming, and the memory of family and love would once again be passed on.

★Northern Lights Book Award

"Blue Cabin" won the 2020 American Northern Lights Picture Book Award. This award regards children's books as an art form and selects picture books of the year that are outstanding in aesthetics and literary quality and have classic qualities.

This book is reminiscent of Virginia Lee Burton's "Little House" and Barbara Cooney's "The Little House," with the same texture and nostalgic style of colored pencils. The cottage in the picture looks charming, with a comfortable window seat and rose vines at the front door. The turquoise waves of the bay sparkle in the background, telling the story of the girl and her parents enjoying the idyll in the blue cottage by the bay year after year. Like summer.

The author Kelly Jordan uses poetic words to describe the friendship between the little girl and the cabin, as well as the warm waiting of the blue cabin...The perfect combination of pictures and texts is like a patchwork quilt, stitched together with memories and love.
