Original Picture Book | Printmaking and Wax Pastel

After a winter that seems to last forever, a colony of penguins has chosen to forget what spring looks like.

But one little penguin refuses to let go of the memory. He believes that spring once existed, and that one day, it will come again.

Despite being doubted and left alone, he continues searching. With the help of a younger generation, he finally discovers the spring he has always believed in.

A poetic tale about memory, hope, and the quiet courage of believing in something we cannot yet see.

Created in 2022 as an experimental picture book during Elyon's MA Children's Book Illustration studies at Cambridge School of Art, Anglia Ruskin University.

Shortlisted for the Hsin Yi Children's Picture Book Award 2023.
