Celebrate the splendors of springtime in this delightful, updated classic from the author of Apples and Pumpkins.
When spring arrives, a young girl looks everywhere for the robin who sang for her last year. She sees all the sights and sounds of the new season: a blooming crocus, a buzzing bee, a colorful magnolia tree, a brief rain shower…but where is the robin?
This updated edition of a springtime favorite includes new jacket art from Lizzy Rockwell and refreshed interior art and design.

Anne Rockwell (1934–2018) has written numerous books for children, including At the Beach and The First Snowfall, both illustrated by Harlow Rockwell.
Harlow Rockwell was an acclaimed artist and was often his wife Anne Rockwell’s collaborator on her books, among them At the Beach, The First Snowfall, and My Spring Robin.
PreS-Gr 1—A child remembers the robin that sang for her the previous summer and anticipates its return. Everywhere she looks she finds signs of spring. The crocus are blooming, the forsythia bush is a mass of yellow blossoms, and the fiddlehead ferns are pushing their way through last year's brown leaves. But no robin sits on a branch in the magnolia tree or seems to be anywhere in her yard. She sees a small toad hiding behind a clump of daffodils and a shiny earthworm among the purple violets. Then she hears her robin's song—Cheer-up, cheerilee! Cheer-up, cheerilee!/Cheer-up, cheerilee!" Her spring robin has returned. Pencil and watercolor illustrations on uncrowded spreads are just right for this gentle tale. An almost life-sized picture of the bird appears on both the first and last pages. The simple text and realistic artwork will certainly remind children to keep their eyes open and their ears attuned to the coming of spring. Originally published in 1987, this edition has a new jacket and refreshed interior art.—Mary Jean Smith, formerly at Southside Elementary School, Lebanon, TN
