Summary

Why?


For young readers who always want to know why? . . . especially when there isn't an easy answer. An ALA Notable Children's Book A Capitol Choices Noteworthy Title Two-time Caldecott and Geisel Honoree Laura Vaccaro Seeger weaves a simple story about the unfailingly curious Rabbit-- and his patient friend Bear, who always answers his questions. Bear just wants to water his flowers, but Rabbit needs to know- why? Bear is looking forward to a peaceful night of stargazing, but all Rabbit cares about is- why? As spring passes into summer, and Rabbit continues to wonder why? , detailed, lush watercolor illustrations encourage the reader to figure out the reason for each question. Over and over, Bear gives the best answers he can-- until, in the depths of winter, he has no answer to give. This simple story is a reminder that even when there are no answers for our questions, we can count on trust and love-- and sometimes, that's more than enough.
