Illustrated by
Micha Archer.
This whimsical celebration of springtime features a playful equation poem on every page. Equations are paired with a few sentences that are always informative and often lyrical: "Lilac blooms are spring's perfume." Tracing the season's changes from early to mid to late spring, Archer's collage illustrations are rich with texture and detail. This picture-book blend of math, science, and poetry welcomes--and explains--the hallmarks of spring with effortless ebullience.
