A digital illustration of people spending time in a pool: A man with sunglasses is happily lounging by the pool chairs. Next to him is a lady in a yellow coordinate and a big hat sitting up observing the children by the pool. A girl in a pink swimsuit is sitting at the edge of the pool and cheering on her brown dog who's swimming to her from the other side of the pool. A boy in the pool is shielding himself as a girl who appears to be his sister is splashing water to him. Another boy is in a pink floatie observing the siblings.

Hello! Happy #KidLitArtPostcard day ✨️ I'm Ada, I'm a Filipino freelance illustrator available and looking for work. Growing up, March signaled the start of summer here in the 🇵🇭 so this month's postcard is inspired by that.
