The story in the picture book takes place in Afghanistan. There is a beautiful village there - in the spring, flowers bloom in full color; in the summer, fruit hangs on the branches. This year, when his older brother goes to war as a soldier, the little boy Yarmer goes to town with his father for the first time to sell fruit. Seeing the bustling scene in the town makes Yameer both fresh and apprehensive. After selling the fruit, his father gives him a snow-white lamb, which he names "Spring". But under the shadow of war, will spring ever come?
