What a Year

(2) K-3 26 Fairmount Avenue Book series. The title speaks of a year, but this latest installment in dePaola's memoirs covers but three-and-a-half months--from Tomie's (sixth) birthday in September through New Year's Eve. The chronology is straightforward, with suspense provided by the calendar, and the details are concrete, well remembered, and well chosen. Spot art and half-page pictures are just right for this picture-book artist's fans as they grow into independent reading.
