From the highs-first snowfall, first new umbrella, first beach trip-to the lows-first missed bus, first lost umbrella, first sunburn-every year older means another cycle of experiences. In their clever, playful, observant picture book, acclaimed author Cheryl B. Klein and illustrator Qin Leng explore many truths of childhood through a calendar year of small moments that, all together, comprise what it is to be a kid.
