Review:

“Little ones can explore spring and their five sense along with bunny Hoppy in Hopgood's latest concept book . . . Just the ticket for a little bit of learning on a cold winter day when spring seems far away.” ―Kirkus Reviews

“An appended double-page spread revisits the five senses and what each told Hoppy about the coming of spring. The simply written story provides a suitable framework for this dual-purpose picture book . . . Appealing illustrations use bold images, springlike colors, and varied textures.” ―Booklist
