PreS–“Here comes spring, all fresh and green, say goodbye to winter’s cold.” An array of very cheerful animals is taking a dip in a nearby pond at this point in this endearing little story, most of them partially dressed, and there are daffodils, new buds on trees, and tadpoles.

VERDICT This is a secular celebration of spring, inconsequential but sweet.
