About this product
Product Information
december 29 and i woke to a morning that was quiet and white the first snow (just like magic) came on tip toes overnight Flowers blooming in sheets of snow make way for happy frogs dancing in the rain. Summer swims move over for autumn sweaters until the snow comes back again. In Julie Fogliano's skilled hand and illustrated by Julie Morstad's charming pictures, the seasons come to life in this gorgeous and comprehensive book of poetry.

Reviews
Complementing the poems are Morstad's gouache and pencil crayon illustrations that range from effectively simple (a firefly glowing in the dark) to tantalizingly detailed (spot the inchworm or the ladybug in the shrubs). A multiracial cast of children relishing the delights of the seasons adds to this title's appeal. --Booklist, starred review " Spreads filled with gentle, watercolor depictions of children experiencing seasonal activities include some surprising details that demand closer perusal and wonderfully complement and extend the text. "--School Library Journal, starred "This combination of poetry and art in praise of the familiar, natural world is sweetly, successfully dazzling."--Kirkus Reviews, starred "Working in gouache and pencil, Morstad (Swan) creates an appealing, multiracial cast of children in scarves and swimsuits, pajamas and parkas, while helping highlight the way that small things--a sprouting plant, a falling leaf--can herald big changes."-- Publisher's Weekly, starred, If You Want to See A Whale : "Fogliano's words are carved and measured. This is a writer who takes her time, and the leaps she makes with language surprise and thrill." - The New York Times "A gorgeous love song to the imagination . . . It's breathtaking . . . Fans will be waiting." - Booklist , starred review "Readers will gape at the two enormous, whale-sized talents at work in this transfixing picture book." - Kirkus Reviews , starred review "Stead's pencil and linoleum prints-as delicate, understated, and imaginative as ever-take exciting creative license with Fogliano's expressive writing." - Publishers Weekly , starred review And Then It's Spring :"This seemingly real-time experience of getting to green is a droll, wistful ode to the stamina behind wanting, will, and perseverance." - School and Library Journal "In an understated and intimate partnership, Fogliano and Stead conjure late winter doldrums and the relief of spring's arrival, well worth the wait." - Publishers Weekly , starred review "Many treasures lie buried within this endearing story, in which humor and anxious anticipation sprout alongside one another." - Kirkus Reviews , starred review "Fogliano's poetic yet grounded narrative is reminiscent of Charlotte Zolotow's picture-book texts in its understatement and straightforward, childlike observations." - The Horn Book , starred review "The woodblock and pencil illustrations give life to animals so expressive and endearing it hurts, and the layout-a mixture of full-bleed spreads and white bordered-vignettes-paces the story well. " - Booklist , starred review, This slim book provides a nuanced look at a familiar theme: poetry for the seasons. Taking a diary-like approach, the text begins and ends with the spring equinox, offering poems for different days throughout the year. A blue bird's song starts things off, "poking / a tiny hole / through the edge of winter / and landing carefully / balancing gently / on the tip of spring." Verse by verse, day by day, the snow melts, April showers fall, magnolias bloom, berries ripen, warm rivers beckon swimmers, fireflies twinkle, a new school year starts, leaves turn, and winter returns. The poems stand on their own as solidly as they connect to each other, inviting multiple readings to experience the details. Fogliano's (If You Want to See a Whale , 2013) descriptions are laden with imagery, evoking the sensations felt by a change in temperature or the flavor of a blueberry. Complementing the poems are Morstad's gouache and pencil crayon illustrations that range from effectively simple (a firefly glowing in the dark) to tantalizingly detailed (spot the inchworm or the ladybug in the shrubs). A multiracial cast of children relishing the delights of the seasons adds to this title's appeal. Pair with Paul Janezco's Firefly July: A Year of Very Short Poems (2014) for another poetic look at the seasons. --Booklist, starred review
