Saturday Storytime & Activity Project with Margaret Merrifield
Young children see the passage of time through the seasonal changes to
the world around them in this charming book, illustrated with Nikki
McClure’s extraordinary cut-paper art. A little boy who can’t wait for
summer keeps asking his mama, “Is it summer yet?” Mama says, “Not yet,
little one,” then points to the signs that spring is turning to
summer—the softening of the earth, the nest-building of squirrels, the
singing of birds—and encourages her son to savor the beauty of spring.
