A delightful visual complement to the appealing and simple text,
Two-time winner of the Texas Institute of Letters Award Myra Cohn Livingston presents Calendar, an easy reader picturebook that introduces young people to the months of the year. Colorful papercut-style illustrations provide a delightful visual complement to the appealing and simple text. Recommended for novice readers just beginning to sound out their first words. “January shivers, / February shines, / March blows off the winter ice, /April makes the mornings nice”.

|Nice Illustrations but uninspired text,
The only good things about this book are some of the illustrations. The text leaves much to be desired. I cannot stand that the author decided to say “August is my birthday” and that’s it for that month. That is so confusing for a 4-year-old child who is trying to learn the months and seasons. I actually got rid of the book, because every time I read it to her, I had to explain that August was not HER birthday. The author really should have said something meaningful for August instead. I would not recommend this for anyone hoping to help a child learn the months or seasons.

|It was my favorite year…,
Gorgeous artwork accompanies this sparse, gentle poem about the passing of the seasons and months. A very classy presentation, and a rich visual feast. (ReadThatAgain)
