Reviews
"PreS-Gr 2 –This book takes readers on a journey through the seasons exploring the blossoming of flowers. Garland pairs the short rhyming text with beautiful and eye-catching illustrations created by a digital collage technique he developed. (“Snowdrop and Crocus. We are the earliest flowers of spring. Robins devour the bugs that we bring.”) Each page shows a seasonal flower(s) in full bloom and the wildlife that’s attracted to its fragrance and color. The text could easily supplement units on seasons and plants for younger readers or serve as an early introduction to life science. Librarians and parents alike will reach for this title as spring and summer come around. Back matter contains more detailed information about each bud mentioned and a summary of the life of a flower. VERDICT A solid purchase for collections in need of a fresh option for season-themed storytimes." — School Library Journal Express
