Note: I received an F&G at ALA Midwinter 2020. I also accessed a digital review copy through Edelweiss. ( )

Stead's illustrations are just lovely ("the artwork for this book was handmade using oil-ink monotype techniques and carbon transfer printing"), with gentle colors appropriate to the seasons they depict.

For each of the four seasons, Zolotow's narrator mentions one thing she loves best about that season, and one she loves best to do - as well as several others.

This could work beautifully for a participatory storytime or one-on-one reading. ("What do you like to do in the winter?") ( )

Loved the note from illustrator about collecting old Zolotow books. ( )
