Review by School Library Journal Review

PreS-Gr 2-In this final book in the seasonal quartet, a child observes the activities of insects, birds, and small animals and delights in summertime play. A late afternoon thunderstorm interrupts outside play, but soon a shimmering rainbow brings its own rewards. Cut-paper artwork, hand painted, textured, and layered, produces a stunning effect. Simple outdoor activities are included. Buy where others in the series have been popular.-Sally R. Dow, Ossining Public Library, NY (c) Copyright 2010.

Review by Horn Book Review

In this celebration of summer, a loosely rhyming text, occasionally lacking in rhythm, expounds on the joys of summer. A young girl takes advantage of what nature has to offer in the warm months: catching fireflies, experiencing thunderstorms, and watching plants grow taller than she is. Colorful and dimensional art bursts with activity. Suggestions for nature activities are included. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
