Illustrated by
Becca Stadtlander.
A family of four works together to accomplish the many tasks involved in putting their small farm to bed for winter. Each spread relates what needs to be done in language both practical and lyrical, imparting a remarkable amount of information. Detailed paintings capture the stark beauty of the December landscape and the snug, communal feeling of the family kitchen and farmstand.
