Rhymes, magic words, and gatefolds celebrate the transformations of
spring... Gal combines charcoal and digital collage for a
beautifully smudgy look, and details charm: on close inspection, a
fly's transparent wing displays a paisley pattern...
*Kirkus*
"O’Brien and Gal use delightful rhymes and brilliant illustrations
to take readers on a magical journey of seasonal changes...This
picture book would be an excellent addition to collections and a
great choice for a storytime themed around the seasons."
“Stunning spreads utilize razzle-dazzle phrases and gatefold pages
to depict the amazing natural changes that seem to come about like
magic…Enchantingly rendered flora and fauna flourish as the season
progresses...”
*School Library Journal*
