I love this book that shows that even through day by day we may not notice that we are growing, we are. Ruth Krauss’ original text from 1947 is given fresh life by two-time Kate Greenaway medalist Helen Oxenbury. The boy observes the seasons as spring turns into summer and then the autumn, and as the seasons change, the corn grows, the pears ripen and the animals grow too: the dog is now almost a grown up, and the chicks turned to hens. When winter comes again and they get back out the winter clothes, the boy rejoices when he finds his winter clothes don't fit, as this must mean he's grown!
