Until one morning--splosh-splash, drizzle-drip, clink, clank, CREAK!--strange new sounds disrupt his comfortable, well-ordered life. Soon the unwilling Pippo is on an unpredictable journey that may alter the rhythm of his days forever!

Pippo's enthralling adventure will delight young audiences. Readers contending with their own changes, big and small, will cheer as Pippo finds his own way to thrive in even the most peculiar of circumstances.
