Product Description

Gorgeous words and illustrations September 23, 2008
Nonfiction (Boston)
My two year old son asks me to read this book several times a day. It is such a wonderful celebration of seasons and the loving bond between parent and child. It is pure poetry. The illustrations are beautiful and unique.
Galoshes-Galumphing! October 2, 2007
Vicki Bohn (Pennsylvania)
This book certainly expanded my three year old's vocabulary! She recently began creative dance and loves the book. You'll find her dancing around outside singing, "Galoshes-galumphing, Galoshes-galumphing, Galoshes-galumphing!" Lots of fun!

This book is wonderfully descriptive and takes the reader through a beautiful journey through the seasons. It also emphasizes the influence special people can have in our lives. Recommended for readers young and old.
A Lyrical Elegy for Dance February 11, 2007

This book is a treasure for all who love the melody of words, and the syncopation of the dance. It reads like a poem, and gives a joyous, yet subtly nostalgic, paen to the dance, and the love between a mother and a daughter. I bought it as a gift to the students I have who are dancers, to read to them, and to bring into the world of dance. It is truely a musical book!The scratched illustrations dance in their own right, too.
