In a spiritual and aesthetic companion to Jay s beautiful Picture This (2004), the artist s work pairs with Gershator s simple, evocative rhyming imagery to conduct viewers on a walk around a small town as seasons change. Jay s stylized pictures, with the texture of ancient frescos, are a window into a world in which the buzz of an insect and the whoosh of the wind lend surprising emotion. Illustrations filled with snowmen, anthropomorphized animals, and people running through a leaf-swept field will make children long to discover what is just over a hill or around the next bend. Capturing a summer idyll reading in a hammock with the same care as a warm evening by the fireplace, Jay invests each image with both joy and melancholy. This jewel of a book will draw children back again and again.
