Spring Is Here

Spring Is Here Synopsis

A winsome calf provides the backdropliterallyfor this charming story. With each turn of the page, the young animal is imaginatively transformed to reflect some activity of the four seasons: snow melting, seedlings springing up, harvest, all the way to the snow melting again and revealing thatthe calf has grown. The story line follows the cycle of the seasons from one spring to the next, and its spare, fluid textwedded to the vigorous graphicsvividly conveys the underlying themes of renewal and growth. The colors are joyful and fresh, and the artist's playful approach to perspective makes this a lovely picture book.
