Spring Thaw
By Steven Schnur. Illustrated by Stacey Schuett.
This is a great start of spring book that will help kids become aware of their environment and the changes going on around them. The text is simple and focuses on the details which announce the approach of spring--a change in the air, water dripping from the snow-covered roof, the appearance of mud under the snow. The illustrations are lovely and help to make alive the freshness and anticipation spring brings. Most are also painted with a unique perspective--helping the reader to focus on and appreciate anew the details of nature we too often take for granted.
