When will it happen: Ivy in Bloom (Vanita Oelschlager)

On dreary winter days, it is easy for all of us to hope for spring. The young girl in this title is eager for the brightness of a new season. She is impatiently waiting until her world becomes more colorful.

The book opens with rhyming text and a wintry view of the world. As the book continues, young children will watch for signs of spring and will find excerpts from some well known authors on the subject.

The illustrations in this book are distinctive and filled with detail. They go nicely with the text.

Recommended for young listeners and their adults. There are ideas here for poems to explore further.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Vanita Books for this title. All opinions are my own.

This book was published in 2009.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
