Reviews
PreSchool-- Just as the dying butterfly leaves its eggs to hatch out another generation, well-loved grandparents leave children and grandchildren to remember them in the beautiful things they leave behind. Hines paints this soft lesson in death in both story and illustrations of a young boy and girl who, after spending quiet summer times with their grandfather in his garden, must cope with his winter death. Hines's quiet, nonthreatening story and lovely watercolors show Grandpa's garden through the seasons of a year--from glorious, brightly hued summer flowers and butterflies to the pale lilacs of spring. It is as successful in presenting a simple explanation of death for very young children, as is Nancy Carlstrom's Blow Me a Kiss, Miss Lilly (HarperCollins, 1990) for slightly older readers. Carlstrom's spare text spins a more touching tale of friendship lost to death for those who are old enough to realize grief for someone dear. --Susan Scheps, Shaker Heights Public Library, OH
