The sun is a sometimes friend. And the world has tucked her children in, with a kiss on their heads, till spring." ( ) Newbery Medal-winning author Cynthia Rylant explores the beauties of November in this lyrical picture-book celebration of late autumn/early winter in the countryside. From the activities of animals both wild and domestic to the special festival that the humans engage in, all of the important key-notes of the season are covered... I wasn't expecting to enjoy In November quite as much as I did, but I found Rylant's text immensely evocative. The conclusion - "In November, at winter's gate, the stars are brittle. The sun is a sometime friend. And the world has tucked her children in, with a kiss on their heads, till spring" - strikes just the right note, while the narrative throughout captures the sense of change and excitement in the air at this time of year. The artwork by Jill Kastner, done in oil paint, is also lovely, depicting the cozy, quiet joys mentioned in the story. My favorite scene (no surprise, given my love for all things feline) was the one with the pile of cats in the barn! Recommended to anyone looking for picture-books about autumn, Thanksgiving (although not mentioned by name, it is clear that this is the holiday depicted in text and artwork), and the changing of the seasons in a rural setting. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
