Verdies – Spring
Willy Whistle is a rascally Verdie boy. He is the most inventive and daring of all the Verdie kids of the Sea of Reeds. However, his hair does not want to turn brown at all. Remaining in kid status while his friends have all become guardians makes life very difficult for Willy. Nevertheless, his secret invention “the storm glider” make him move as fast as warblers and his other invention, the spider-web network saves the Sea of reads from the attack of swans and Grimps.
Verdies – Summer
Summer is the favourite season of Verdie children and youngsters. In summer the water of the Babbly Lake is nice and warm, and on the sandy shore of the island, the beach opens. The frogs in the nearby reeds give a mini concert, the waterfowl meander like boats among the bathers, and in the kiosk on the shore Verdies wearing straw hats sell popweed, tangle fries, and alga ice-cream. While Willy Whistle is dreaming about constructing un unsinkable boat, his best friend Jumping Jeremiah disappears and the swans and Grimps have vicious plans to conquer Verdie Castle.
Verdies – Autumn
As Autumn is coming Verdies must prepare for the cold days. They collect seeds, clean up their winter accommodation in the trunk of the old willow tree. When a young swallow becomes seriously ill just before departing for Africa, Willy Whistle leaves the reeds of the Babbly Lake to get him the healing potion from a wise old crane who lives in the neighbouring lake. But his visit to the unknown territory catches the attention of the water rats who decide to invade the Babbly Lake.
Verdies – Winter
Most inhabitants of the Sea of Reeds have left or have hibernated for the cold winter season. However, unknown footprints appear in the snow on the lake shore. The rats and Grimps are preparing for a decisive battle against the Verdies. The Verdies need new allies, when Willy and Lily meet a half-frozen Grimp girl in the snow. As they save her and take her home, they become friends with her family. Soon Verdies get to know that Grimps are not as wicked as they used to think. This book is maybe the most exciting of all, but at the same time it deals with the issues of friendship, empathy and tolerance.
The four seasons are available in Chinese.
