another Dianna Hutts Aston/Sylvia Long book is coming out this spring?!!!

They are the fabulous author-illustrator team responsible for:
An Egg is Quiet
A Seed is Sleepy

...which are very highly acclaimed here! I love them.

The new book, coming out in April, is A Butterfly is Patient.   I can't wait.

I had to be patient to wait for this title, but our library FINALLY got a copy. Got it today, and it's fabulous, as usual!

...and another new book to this lovely series (2012)

A Rock is Lively by Dianna Hutts Aston, Sylvia Long

I especially like this one since I enjoy geology. It is very well done like the rest of the series. My favorite is the "A rock is mixed up" pages - it has the various individual minerals pictured (beautiful colors in the illustrations) and then the facing page has the rock that is made up of all those minerals.

A great time to get the book as Earth Science Week starts next week.
