Caldecott Honor winner Micha Archer's gloriously detailed collages invite readers into Daniel's blossoming world, encouraging them to appreciate all the wonderful new things in their own lives, big and small.
"What's new?" We casually say this to each other all the time, but when Daniel's grandpa asks him this question, Daniel's curiosity is sparked and he's determined to really find out! And there is so much new stuff to report on, since their local park is brimming with spring life. Birds have reappeared from their winter journeys, ducklings are hatching, and polliwogs are growing long legs--just like Daniel!Author Biography
