WHEN
SPRING COMES A
young girl gazes out her winter window, anticipating the scents and
sounds and special pleasures of the coming spring. The days will be
warm and tender and free, the nights filled with the music of treefrogs.
Then there is a jingling of bells. The girl's reverie breaks off and
she plunges into the present, which proves to be every bit as rich,
splendid--and joyful--as anything she has imagined. With a rare, graceful
skill, this sensuous picture book evokes the warmth of rural times past,
as well as the burning exhilaration of being fully alive in the infinity
of "now". |
DAY
LIGHT, NIGHT LIGHT
Written by Franklyn M. Branley Illustrated by Stacey Schuett Published by HarperCollins, 1998. ISBN #0-06-027294-5.
"Handsome
acrylic paintings appealingly interpret the text...the book succeeds admirably
in leading readers to look at familiar phenomena from different perspectives." |
THE
CHRISTMAS BIRD On a frosty winter night, a small bird singes her feathers while fanning flames to warm a newborn baby--and, for her kindness, receives a wonderful gift. "Schuett...balances vivid jewel tones and shadowy, more somber hues in mixed media compositions that offer a bird's eye view." Publishers Weekly
