Here Comes the Year

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Keiko Narahashi. Each double-page spread features a month of the year: "I am the April rain, / a silvery spray / puddling streets and sidewalks, / splashing away." The slight text is somewhat rambling and often abstract. Attractive gouache and watercolor illustrations depict children engaged in activities appropriate for each month.
Reviewer: Hilary Breed Van Dusen
