A little girl is still too young to understand days, months, or seasons—but she begins to discover the year through the special things that return again and again. Christmas gives way to Valentine’s Day, spring and Easter, summer days, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas once more.
Charlotte Zolotow’s gentle celebration of childhood, anticipation, and the changing seasons is beautifully paired with Garth Williams’s warm, tender illustrations. A gorgeous vintage picture book about the comforting rhythm of the year.
