Review # 1 was written on 2013-08-16 00:00:00 Kenneth Lawson preS-gr1/2 Rockwell does this book so well. So simple and straightforward with the passing of the months, but uses the bear to focus the child's interest as the monthly special days are experience by the bear.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-05-11 00:00:00 Mike Cunt Published in 2001 and since I first went looking for books on the winter solstice (1994), this short and sweet story about differences and respect and compromise talks about solstice in a way that could be embraced by all but the extremist few (or maybe not as it doesn't affirm nor disconfirm the more traditional end of year celebrations). How Jenny deals with her feelings of difference is a lesson for all children. Her respect for her parents beliefs even though it is those beliefs which reinforces her differences is a model to be followed. Her solution and compromise to build her own traditions is heart warming, creative, and imaginative. Should all people approach the end of the year holidays with as much thoughtfulness as Jenny...yes, they should.
