A cat recalls favorite experiences from each season of its first year of life, from struggling to get out of its cozy box in the spring, to snuggling by the radiator in the cold of winter.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Green Eyes by Abe Birnbaum, a Caldecott Honor book first published in 1953, is now available in a deluxe edition. The white kitten of the title, boldly outlined in black line, grows and frolics through the seasons. In autumn, as leaves fall "slowly to the ground," the text mimics their movement.

This review is from: Green Eyes (Family Storytime) (Hardcover)
I remember my mother reading this book to me as a child. It is a wonderful book about how a curious cat sees the seasons. I am a teacher and read it to my first graders every year when we study the seasons.
