<p><b>A playful, poetic picture book celebrating the coming of spring from the award-winning author of <i>Summer Feet<\/i> and featuring luminous original artwork by an internationally renowned quilt artist. <\/b><br><br>
\n<i>Buds of leaves<br>
\nstill curled in knots<br>
\njust like teeny polka dots<br>
\nspots of green on bare-branched trees<br>
\nsoon buds will bloom and leaves<br>
\nunfurl<br>
\nyes, shimmery light<br>
\non every thing.<\/i><br><br>
\nSpring is sometimes a long time coming. As snow melts and winter slowly blows away, the earth begins its unfolding of new life and hopeful greening. While we can still snowshoe through the soft white and sip the clear, wintry air, we dream of the sparkle of spring, that wind-chapped-cheek time, where \u00ab\u00a0baby fiddleheads sleep\/like so many questions deep\u00a0\u00bb and the sun comes \u00ab\u00a0smiling in\/as longer days of light begin.\u00a0\u00bb<br><br>
\nA poetic celebration of the season, Spring Song!<\/i> invites readers into a rural family home and the natural world that surrounds them. Tiny details and clues emerging from hibernation are a source of wonder, seeds hold secrets of sunflowers, and mudliscious puddles await!<br><br>
\nA collection of verse germinating for years, ever since author Sheree Fitch first experienced the magical artwork of artist Deb Plestid, whose luminous, original quiltwork illustrates this gentle, vibrant book, brimming with the joy of spring.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
