This book depicts all the different things that go on in the spring time. I loved this book because of the real-life pictures. It definitely made me think of spring and the happiness that spring always brings.

The activities a child does during the spring.

In When Spring Comes Robert Maass details the natural and cultural events that take place in the spring. When spring Comes is engaging and well organized. The photographs were appropriate and clearly described the text. Maass’ tone in this book was upbeat and conversational and the addition of the Easter and Passover became an unexpected multicultural teaching moment for my students. My kindergarten class loved this book! I used it as my primary book in a thermic unit on spring and must have read it four times to my students. I highly recommended this book for kindergarten through 5th grades. ( )

This was a wonderful picture book about the season of spring. Children can see all of the events that happen during this great season.
