Kitten’s Spring

Eugenie Fernandes

The sun is shining on the farm and kitten has gone exploring. There is much to see and hear this morning. First kitten listens to the song of a hummingbird, and the buzz of a bee. As kitten goes along, there is a frog, and a bird leaving her nest. Yet, there is so much more to see. Kitten plays chase with the dog and hears the chicken clucking with her chick. The farm is full of things to see and hear! There are still ducks, cows, pigs, and so much more for kitten to see and hear.

The illustrations are very colorful, almost appearing to be three-dimensional. Each page is full of things to see, despite the text. Ms. Fernandes has done an excellent job creating a book that will appeal to young readers beyond just the initial story line. Young readers will find much to look for on the pages of this very colorful fun read.
