It is raining and a young boy wants to go out and play, but his grandfather says to wait. Hours pass before the grandfather agrees it is time to go out. Was it worth the wait? See what you think. Rain, by Sam Usher.

Not many words here, mostly just some wonderful pictures of a child and a wolf cub lost in the snow and how they get home. Wolf in the Snow, by Matthew Cordell.

I have decided to include this book here because even though it's not a picture book, it is about childhood. Forty-four, to be exact. forty-four american boys: short histories of presidential childhoods, by william walsh is a collection of short entries collected from a wide variety of sources about each of the U.S. presidents. The author did a nice job on finding the information, but the book is full of grammar and spelling errors (the most jarring for me was "rains" instead of "reins") and a proof reading would have been a huge asset. I almost didn't include the book because of this. My suggestion? Due knot relay awn yore spiel Czech!
