Description
Book Introduction
A story dreaming of a world where nature's rhythm and order are restored in an age of instability.

A world where all four seasons have arrived simultaneously! How did this happen? On the day nature's clock stopped, can the lost balance be restored? The four seasons have become entangled on the Winter King's birthday! The Spring Queen, the Summer King, and the Autumn Queen have all gathered to celebrate the Winter King's birthday.
A joyous birthday party awaits, but then something strange happens! Autumn rain falls amidst the summer sun, and spring flowers bloom amidst the winter snow.
The forest animals are confused about whether to hibernate or wake up to find a mate in the spring, and the world is no longer the same.
This is a story about how the desire to be together shook the order of the world, but in the end, nature found its own place.
It is also a story that shows how precious harmony and moderation are.
Also, 『The Winter King's Dangerous Birthday Party』 is a truly special picture book brought to life by a reporter from the British Guardian newspaper.
Because it is a story that revives the forgotten fairy tale [The Winter King's Birthday] written in a concentration camp by the Jewish writer Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz, who tragically died at the age of 27 during World War II.

Publisher's Review
"The Winter King's Perilous Birthday Party" is a beautiful winter fable that restores warm order to a world where the rhythm of the four seasons has collapsed.
Jonathan Friedland, a journalist for the Guardian and bestselling author, has taken inspiration from the story of the Jewish writer Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz, who tragically died at the age of 27 during World War II, and reimagined it as a modern picture book.
This picture book delivers an important message to readers in this age of climate crisis.
This book is not just a picture book.
It contains the natural order, the world out of balance, and the mind that seeks to restore it.
For children, it teaches the importance of natural order and harmony, and for adults, it teaches the hope of loss and recovery.
This is a story about how the desire to be together shook the order of the world, but in the end, nature found its own place.
This picture book reminds us of the importance of natural order, and conveys a message of natural order, broken balance, and restoration.
Emily Sutton's illustrations throughout the book are truly beautiful.
From the tree paintings that show the changing seasons to the elaborate and ornate paintings inside, the seasons are personified and the splendid appearance of nature is well expressed.
The colors representing each season are also perfect.
It harmoniously blends the cool blue and white of winter, the brown and gold of autumn, the yellow and green of spring, and the colorful rainbow of summer.
These illustrations are full of life and energy, and I'm sure young readers will enjoy exploring them.
