(4) K-3 Illustrated by Nick Wroblewski. "Pearls of dew / on strings of silver... / Spider's work on fine display." Pine trees, a moose and calf, a swooping heron, and more greet a sleepy child (who looks much younger than the audience the text will appeal to) in the early morning sun. Woodcut blockprints in muted natural tones and spare, poetic text evocatively chronicle early morning on a northern woodland island.
Reviewer: Rebecca Reed Whidden
