Spring: An Alphabet Acrostic

32 pp. | Clarion | March, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-395-82269-6 $$15.00
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Leslie Evans. An alphabetical listing of springtime's sights, sounds, and emotions is recorded in brief blocks of text that form engaging acrostics. Read vertically, the first letter of each line spells out the seasonal word being described, such as kites, seeds, and twilight. The evocative free verse captures the season's promise, as do the colorful block-print illustrations.
