Synopsis
The running of rivers, the wild geese returning, the bear cubs stepping out, and the peepers singing - this is the arrival of spring in the north country. Join all manner of north country animals as they respond in their own unique ways to the slow vanishing of the cold, dark winter. Reeve Lindbergh's verse captures the empowering voice of spring in language both poetic and precise, while Liz Sivertson's paintings are as spirited and free as the north itself. Together, poet and painter celebrate the wildness and beauty of a season that can never come too soon.

Review
Spring is in the air in North Country Spring, and the voice of the season encourages the forest animals to "come out ... whoever you are. Come out with the dawn and the morning star." The tall moose struts, the sleek otter slides, and the wild wolf howls as the North Country inhabitants revel in winter's end. The free-spirited paintings of Liz Sivertson spark kids' imaginations, while Reeve Lindbergh's prose captures the exhilarating spirit of spring. Lindbergh's "Animal Notes" briefs readers on the seasonal habits of the forest animals, including such irresistible critters as the fox, the deer, and the skunk. (Ages 4-8)
