Listen, Listen

(4) PS Illustrated by Alison Jay. Rhyming text describes the sounds of each season. Readers are invited to listen to the whistle of the finch in springtime and the plop of acorns dropping in the fall. The text is bland ("Listen, listen...autumn's gone. Snowflakes whisper, 'Winter's fun'"), but Jay's characteristic crackled paintings are striking, giving readers much to pore over.
