Reviews
Weber stirringly organizes a northerly annum's chronology into winter questions, spring feelings, summer wishes, and fall thoughts in this exuberant seasonal accounting, which features appealing, perspective-distorted gouache and acrylic paintings. . . . The book's playful vibe, and mixture of introspective musings and emblematic moments, give it an enduring appeal.

A recommended choice for reading and sharing thoughts and surprises. This book goes well beyond the facts about the seasons to challenge readers to confront the unexpected.
