Summer: An Alphabet Acrostic

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Leslie Evans. Winsome summertime images of beaches, hiking, and picnics are captured in hand-colored linoleum block illustrations and brief free verse poems that celebrate the season, from "the longest days of the year" to the appearance of "autumn's twinkling constellations." The text is arranged acrostic-style, so that the first letter of each line spells out the word being described.
