(3) PS Illustrated by Mary Newell DePalma. A little mouse keeps asking his mother if spring will come--"Will I roll down steep grassy hills / giggling towards the bottom? / Ever again?" Her answers--like his questions, they appear in a poemlike column--both reassure him and point out the perks of winter (buttery oatmeal; sledding), as does the acrylic and cut-paper art in an icy palette.
