An Anishinaabe child and her grandmother explore the natural
wonders of each season in this lyrical, bilingual story-poem. In
this lyrical story-poem, written in Anishinaabemowin and English, a
child and grandmother explore their surroundings, taking pleasure
in the familiar sights that each new season brings. We accompany
them through warm summer days full of wildflowers, bees and
blueberries, then fall, when bears feast before hibernation and
forest mushrooms are ripe for harvest. Winter mornings begin in
darkness as deer, mice and other animals search for food, while
spring brings green shoots poking through melting snow and the
chirping of peepers. Brittany Luby and Joshua Mangeshig
Pawis-Steckley have created a book inspired by childhood memories
of time spent with Knowledge Keepers, observing and living in
relationship with the natural world in the place they call home -
the northern reaches of Anishinaabewaking, around the Great Lakes.

Watch the world transform when spring comes! In a starred review,
School Library Journal called this delightful picture book "A
must-have, joyful seasonal title for the youngest listeners." In
this beautiful board book for young children, Caldecott Medalist
and Newbery Honor author Kevin Henkes uses striking imagery,
repetition, and alliteration to introduce basic concepts of
language and the changing of the seasons. And acclaimed artist
Laura Dronzek's gorgeous, lush paintings show the transformation
from quiet, cold winter to the newborn spring. Before spring comes,
the trees are dark sticks, the grass is brown, and the ground is
covered in snow. But if you wait, leaves unfurl and flowers
blossom, the grass turns green, and the mounds of snow shrink and
shrink. Spring brings baby birds, sprouting seeds, rain and mud,
and puddles. You can feel it and smell it and hear it-and you can
read it! In a starred review, The Horn Book said, "This joyful
reflection is as welcome as spotting the first brave crocus." In
the Middle of Fall, Winter Is Here, When Spring Comes, and Summer
Song make for a beautiful quartet of seasonal-theme picture books
to share at home or in the classroom. Ideal for introducing the
season, for story time, and for bedtime reading.
Understading time words and phrases and talking about daily
routines are important steps in learning to tell the time. This
bright book is designed to help parents amuse, interest and at the
same time teach their children vital early learning skills. Useful
parent tips are included throughout to support the learning
process.
