A watermelon becomes a pool for the neighborhood in this refreshing story about carefree summer days. 

How about swimming inside a large, cool watermelon on a hot summer day? In a quiet rural village, in mid-summer, the Watermelon Swimming Pool opens: a huge watermelon splits in half, allowing the entire village to enter and play together. Children and adults, relatives and neighbors play in the watermelon pool to cool off from the heat, watch the sun set over the village together, and make plans for next summer. A special space to enjoy together, regardless of differences and distinctions.
