Lila is a young groundhog who wants to know from her Uncle Wilbur why it's so special to be the first groundhog awake after their hibernation. He refuses to tell her and she falls asleep wondering what could be so special about being the first one awake and out tot he fresh forest. When she awakes from sleeping through the winter she goes out her burrow to find all the forest animals waiting to hear if she saw her shadow. Since it was a cloudy day, she didn't. To her surprise all the animals cheered and were happy to hear that spring was coming. Confused as to why a cloudy day meant spring was coming she asked her Uncle who arose just after her. After learning the tradition she celebrated with a picnic with her family. A great book for Groundhog's Day. One of the best I've found that incorporates the American tradition with a fun tale. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Uncle Wilber isn't telling, but he challenges Lila to be up earlier than anyone else. When Lila finally wakes up, she races Above Ground and finds all of the neighbor animals waiting for her. They all want to know if she sees it. Sees what? Lila looks around. What's the secret? Check out this charming tale about weather folklore to find out.
The Bottom Line: With notes about the tradition of Groundhog Day, this picture book is a gentle and fun read for kids in preschool to grade 2. The tale is engaging, and the pages are filled with lovely, soft illustrations in acrylic, colored pencil, and gouache. Enthusiastically recommended for storytime or bedtime reading.
