Winter Is Here

(2) PS Illustrated by Laura Dronzek. This third season-themed picture book (When Spring Comes; In the Middle of Fall) is a lyrical ode to winter and its many moods. The gently rhythmic text uses descriptive language to bring wintertime to vivid life. Uncluttered, expressive acrylics capture the contradictions of the season. Expressive full-bleed spreads steal the show, especially at the book's close when winter "shrinks away bit by bit" and glorious, full-color spring arrives.
