Description: "A year goes by as a class asks winter questions, feels spring feelings, makes summer wishes, and thinks fall thoughts"-- Provided by publisher.
Review Quotes: Weber stirringly organizes a northerly annum's chronology into winter questions, spring feelings, summer wishes, and fall thoughts in this exuberant seasonal accounting, which features appealing, perspective-distorted gouache and acrylic paintings. . . . The book's playful vibe, and mixture of introspective musings and emblematic moments, give it an enduring appeal.
