The worst fog in twenty years temporarily disheartens the grownups, but, as always, the children take it in stride. They play hide-and-seek among the rocks, have fun getting lost in front of their own cottages, and toast marshmallows over a drift-wood fire, while the fog "tip-toes past the windows and across the porch."

Repeating the pattern of "White Snow Bright Snow" a Caldecott Medal Winner, this evocative picture-story captures the ready response of children to another mysterious and fascinating phenomena of nature—a fog that came and stayed three days in a little seaside village on Cape Cod.
