A single flower blooming in the woods brings joy.:
A short children's book about animals hibernating in the winter yet who come out to see a happy sight, a flower growing in the middle of the snow. Spring must be near! The book was a 1950 Caldecott Honor book (i.e., a runner-up to the Medal winner) for best illustration in a children's book.
the unhappy child but happy parent:
I think this book is really cute, but my son, who is three, is not thrill with it. He thinks its boring. Maybe in a couple of years he will enjoy it more.
I'm really torn on this book:
I'm so torn. On the one hand, this is a simply-written, repetitive book about the real start of spring - a flower in the snow - and how all the animals react to that. On the other hand, the artwork is a little uninspiring, and I'm not certain black-and-white is the color scheme to go with here. Definitely read before you buy.
