Everything Spring (Picture The Seasons)

by Jill Esbaum (Author)

Reading Level: K − 1st Grade
Surround yourself in Everything Spring. Stunning photography and detailed imagery capture the uplifting spirit of our favorite season in this counterpart to the National Geographic bestseller A Tree for All Seasons. We think of spring and we feel warmer, sunny days, we smell the freshness of nature's flowers blooming again, and we picture little chicks and furry bunnies. These adorable baby animals are fun to look at and they represent the spirit of renewal and life that is spring. Every young creature finally ventures outside to play as the dreary days of winter fade away and color surround us all. Spring is about being outdoors enjoying all that our wonderful planet has to offer--it's about living life to the fullest. In Jill Esbaum's beautifully photographed picture book, young children can see, hear, and feel the warmth of springtime by reading and learning all about chicks, bunnies, and the other baby animals that come out to play in springtime.

PreS-KThese pages burst with vibrant photographs of baby animals and close-ups of buds and growth. Esbaum uses poetic prose to connect children with the joy of the season: "Spring "tiptoes" in, /stirring up earthy/smells, coaxing/color from the/winter-brown woods." Students will recognize themselves in the eager, tentative duckling taking to water. A climax of an oncoming storm sends animals scrambling for shelter. This slight but attractive book ends with a forecast for blue skies."S. McClendon, Friends School of Atlanta, Decatur, GA" Copyright 2010 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.
