As will all the books that deal with the four seasons, it's hard to know just where to put them. (Well, unless it's a title like Firefly July from the July 13, 2017 post) ;-) Sing a Season Song, by Jane Yolen and illustrated by Lisel Jane Ashlock, starts with winter and follows insects, animals, birds, children and various plants through the year. A delightful lyric and stunning pictures make this a book to read several times in one sitting (I know I did).

This title popped up when I was looking for other books on the Pinks (of Pinkerton fame): Pink is for Blobfish: Discovering the World's Perfectly Pink Animals, by Jess Keating with illustrations by David deGrand. I had no idea how many animals are pink! Just a fun book that seems to be part of a series The World of Weird Animals.

A sticker in the paw of Canadian Reader's dog inspired me to search out an old, old favorite: Andy and the Lion: a Tale of Kindness Remembered or the Power of Gratitude, by James Daugherty. I remember reading this book over and over. :-) Almost as good now as it was then.
