In the Spring  by Craig Brown

In the Spring
Brown, Craig. (1993) In the Spring. Greenwillow.
Spring on the farm results in new life: the pig has piglets, the cat has kittens, the cow has a calf, and so on -- then the farmer's wife has twins.
  • Create your own "In the Spring" book focusing on animals in another setting, for example, the zoo. Include a giraffe, elephant, and culminate with the zookeeper's wife.
  • Read I Love You, Mouse by John Graham (Harcourt, 1976) -- a book of rhymes including baby animals and their mothers.
  • If you are in the Tama, Iowa area schedule a stop at the Louise and Lucille Hink Tama Public Library in downtown Tama to view the original illustrations for In the Spring.
