NEW IN BOARD!
“When signs of spring are in the air, we look for babies everywhere!” Joy N. Hulme and Dan Andreasen, who created the beautiful Stable in Bethlehem, now capture the spirit of a holiday and a season--with a counting concept worked right in. From one newborn foal walking on wobbly legs and five open-billed nestlings eager for food to 11 children playing in the park and 12 church bells ringing, this lovely board book celebrates spring, Easter, and new life. Hulme's gentle rhyme and Andreasen's softly hued, charming pictures work in perfect harmony, and the adorable bunnies, fuzzy yellow chicks, and frolicking lambs will enchant children.

Joy N. Hulme writes picture books, pop-up books, and historical novels. Joy was born and raised near Salt Lake City, Utah, and now lives in Monte Sereno, California. Dan Andreasen is an acclaimed illustrator of more than 25 picture books. He and his wife live with their three children in Medina, Ohio.
PreS—Each digital and oil illustration of a farm animal is accompanied by one sentence of rhyming text with the appropriate numeral set in blue. "1 newborn foal gets to his feet/to walk on wobbly legs./2 brooding hens sit quite content/to hatch their nests of eggs." The concluding couplet, "In churches all around the town/12 Easter bells are ringing/... to celebrate the signs that spring/has brought new life to everything," is the only mention of the Christian holiday. The sweet, pastel spreads portray softly rounded animals with gentle faces in an idyllic country setting. However, Doreen Cronin's amusing Click Clack Splish Splash: A Counting Adventure (S & S) and Rebecca Fjelland Davis's educational Flowers and Showers: A Spring Counting Book (Capstone, both 2006) have more child appeal.—Linda L.
