After countless attempts, he gives himself a vacation and lies down comfortably. Will he think about his past failures or what he is really good at and likes to do?

Someday in the future, I will fly into the sky. The rain is falling. I like - Jumping in the water puddles. Pit-a-pat!
Someday in the future, I will whisper to the cloud. The day is sunny. I like - Playing football on the grass. Bong!
Someday in the future, I will run all over the field, cheering and sweating. It’s raining; I like to build tall block buildings and castles.
Someday in the future, I will build parks all over the world. …
- a poetic picture book with beautiful illustrations
- moments of innocent childhood with rich imagination
