A mother explains to her son that an end is also a beginning as day gives way to night, winter ends and spring begins, and, after it stops falling, rain makes clouds for other storms.

Rezensionen

Ages 4^-8. At the close of a wonderful day, a young boy asks his mother why the day must end. "Nothing ends," he is told. "It begins in another place or in a different way." In this revised and newly illustrated edition of Zolotow's 1962 picture book, the boy's gently probing questions are answered and nature's never-ending cycle of renewal is revealed. Without compromising the ethereal quality of the original book, extraneous text has been eliminated and some of the words and sentences have been rearranged to give the story a smoother flow. Exquisite paintings by Italian illustrator Vitale replace the black-and-white drawings of the first edition. The full-color scenes, painted on wood, gloriously depict heaven and earth and give concrete meaning to abstract concepts. Not only wonderful for lap sharing, this beautiful book will also be a rich supplement for a science unit on the elements or the seasons. Lauren Peterson
