[.ca] Signs of Spring (ISBN 1590341899)

A wonderful little book after a long cold winter!:
We found this book ...just as the daffodils and forsythia were starting to flower. My 3 yr old sons and I went on a treasure hunt for more signs of spring, without much luck. A couple weeks later, as the weather warmed, we tried again. This time, we pretended to be the characters in the book, Lucy, Henry and Zack. Like Lucy, I definitely get spring fever, so I was thrilled to lead them in their search for flower buds on trees and bushes, feathers, new grass, moss, and dandelion flowers. "Signs of Spring" is a beautifully illustrated book, with forest animals as the main characters. It is a perfect introduction to spring and the changes occuring in nature for preschool age children. For the young elementary child, it might inspire a perfect show and tell presentation. And for everyone, it is a welcome reminder that no matter how long and dark and cold winter seems, the bright and fresh wonders of spring will always appear!
