A Few Reviews:

“In wonderful rhyming verse, children can journey through the months… There are also verses for the hours of the day and the days of the week, all of which are beautifully illustrated. Fun to read either together, or as a group.” – Creative Steps Magazine

“My first experience with illustrator and author Elsa Beskow and I’m obsessed! Her illustrations of children are absolutely beautiful! I bought this for my best friend who is Swedish and I’ll be a collector now. The quality is lovely also!”
