A collaboration between science writer Lee Eun-hee and Bologna Ragazzi Award winning illustrator Yun Mi-sook. The story follows the travels of three water drop “brothers” who make their way through the heavens, oceans and underground (even through the body of a cow, coming out as milk) to illustrate the water cycle. They end up back together in the ocean, ready to explore the world again “because that is exactly what water drops like to do!” [dj]
