Illustrated by
Stacey Schuett.
In hushed tones, Schnur describes a rural landscape emerging from winter. From sun up till sun down on the small farm, the first signs of spring appear: a warm wind in the trees, the creaking of the old house, dripping icicles, and overflowing sap buckets. The soft edges and thick brush strokes of Schuett's paintings aptly capture the turning of the season.
