(4) K-3 Illustrated by Mindy Dwyer. Each double-page spread features a boy and girl's rhyming assessment of the season ("Winter is cold, / sending shivers down deep. / In thick, furry coats / the wild animals sleep") set against a cool-color-rich backdrop. The rhymes aren't original, but Dwyer's watercolor images, especially of frost on the window and the northern lights against the night sky, are enticing.
