er's gloriously detailed collages invite readers into Daniel's blossoming world, encouraging them to appreciate all the wonderful new things in their own lives, big and small.

Birds have reappeared from their winter journeys, ducklings are hatching, and polliwogs are growing long legs--just like Daniel!
