Explora Books will showcase Megan Brown’s Nature News: Where is Spring? at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair, scheduled for June 17–21 at the CNCC in Beijing. The picture book delivers a charming and educational adventure set in Chicago, where the season of Spring has mysteriously vanished—inviting young readers to explore the balance of nature, the science of seasons, and the quiet urgency of a changing climate.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th May 2026 – When Spring fails to arrive after the Spring Equinox, Chicago’s natural environment is thrown into uncertainty. Summer and Winter—never ones to agree—are left in a playful tug-of-war, while Fall watches quietly from the sidelines. Brown’s story uses personified seasons to explore how balance, cooperation, and patience are essential to the rhythm of nature.

Set against the recognizable skyline of Chicago, the story brings to life a cast of animals, flowers, and weather characters that children will find both familiar and endearing. Tulips shiver beneath icicles, returning birds huddle for warmth, and Nature’s creatures await Spring’s long-overdue arrival. Through each colorful spread, Brown weaves in real science—introducing young readers to equinoxes, hemispheres, and how sunlight shapes the seasons.

At the heart of the story is a deeper question: Is Spring’s absence the result of a seasonal squabble—or has human pollution disrupted the conditions needed for her to arrive? Brown gently introduces the concept of climate change, encouraging young readers to consider how their choices affect the world around them. The evergreens and geese—steadfast through every season—serve as voices of calm and reassurance, reminding Nature that Spring will come.

Brown’s Nature News: Where is Spring? is a delightful and thought-provoking picture book that transforms seasonal science into an accessible, emotionally resonant story—one that inspires children to love, observe, and protect the natural world.

Explora Books will present the title at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair as part of its featured exhibition lineup. Readers unable to attend can also access a digital edition of Nature News: Where is Spring? through Amazon.
