Snowy, Flowy, Blowy: A Twelve Months Rhyme

(3) PS In a text "based on an old poem by Gregory Gander," each month is assigned one word. Focusing on a family's outdoor activities throughout the year, the watercolor illustrations extend the expression: February is fulsomely "flowy" (a flowing stream, winter scarves flowing in the wind, etc.), while November is "sneezy" in a less obvious way. Detail-attentive preschoolers won't be surprised by the family's new baby come December.
