Summary: When Percy moves to the country, he feels a bit lonely at first. Over time, he discovers the surprises and joys awaiting him outdoors. (Miller Library Staff)Summary: "A young boy moves from the city, where there was always something to do and someone to do it with, to the country. His new home just isn't the same, but at least it's summertime -- flowers are blooming, baby birds are hatching, and caterpillars are transforming into butterflies. Percy tastes wild strawberries, climbs trees and tries to catch fish in the river with his bare hands. Even at night, the garden is full of life. When he gets home, Percy likes to draw pictures of what he has seen that day. He collects interesting leaves and rocks, and insects in jars. Percy discovers that being alone doesn't have to be lonely, but explorers often share their findings. So, Percy creates a way to show his collection... Percy's Museum is a sweet story about embracing change, the excitement of discovery and the wonder of nature and new friends."--
