Spring Goes Squish!

by Marty Kelley

No one slanders a season like Marty Kelley. This time he goes after spring, in a hilarious rhyming tale. What's wrong with spring, you ask? As it turns out, just about everything--rain and mud everywhere, disappearing kites, runny noses (of course), and many more vernal vexations. Our heroine's problems are brought to life through onomatopoeia (Spring goes SCHLORP and GULP and EEWWW!)and Marty's charming and side-splitting full-color illustrations.

A great book to teach onomatopeia. Another funny story and I thank CLiF for donating this book to our library.

Would be good choice for primary grades. Could be paired with the music.
