Another BEAUTIFUL children’s book by @ellieholcomb! We own all of Ellie’s books and I can’t wait to add a physical copy of this to our library.

Spring Sings is the perfect book to add to your spring collection or Easter basket! It focuses on what nature shows us in the spring and how it all points to the Creator. With a gospel message explaining Easter all wrapped up in beautiful rhymes and illustrations, it’s perfect for little readers as they learn about seasons, how God made the earth, and what Easter is really about. Plus, I can’t wait to see what music Ellie will release to go with this book like all her others!

Spring Sings is a short rhyming picture book about spring and the Easter season. It takes a religious angle, so be cognizant of that. The illustrations are colorful and it's short enough to hold the attention of younger readers.

Thanks to B&H Publishing and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

Thanks to Net Galley and B&H Publishing for the ARC! Great illustrations! The book has a great flow with rhyming stanzas. It gives an overview of what happens in the season of spring. It also has an element of God. I go into books blind so I did not know there was the God element. However, I think it was implemented tastefully.

A Smile of a Book-

I smiled the whole time I was reading this book! A must-read in anticipation of spring and Easter.

This board book delivers everything it promises and so much more. I imagine Ellie Holcomb singing her way through this celebration of spring and our risen Savior. The rhyming text flows like sweet lyrics to a song as the reader brings life to each page. The illustrations are bright and busy, giving much to talk about with a 2-5 year old. Another win for B&H Publishing!

I received this book from the author/publisher free of charge, with no expectation of a positive review.

I received a copy of this eBook from netGalley for a honest review.

A lovely story about spring, Easter and God for everybody to enjoy.

This is a beautiful book that makes you feel like you're in nature. The whole world wakes up again in spring. This is an Easter book, for people who enjoy getting books for special times. Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

This is a beautiful book for kids about spring, with great illustrations. The story also reminds them of the most important thing we celebrate in spring--Jesus's resurrection!!
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the advance e-copy of this book! All opinions expressed are entirely my own.

The rhyming text and message in this book are beautiful but like most good picture books the illustrations really make it sing! I love that the full-page illustrations are full of detail. I can imagine looking with a child for specific things or talking about the many things going on. Some of the animals are portrayed with a bit more anthropomorphism than needed in my opinion (groundhogs underground reading books, moles with a calendar on the wall in their burrow) but not every animal or scene is so cartoon-ish. I know kids wouldn’t mind and could actually be a good commenting point about how it’s silly. The book has a strong Easter message and would be a great gift at that time but could be enjoyed anytime in winter or spring. Though I got the eBook to review I’m planning to purchase a copy to send to my great nephews and niece when it comes out in February 2025.
Thanks to NetGalley and B&H Kids for an early copy to read and review.

So Spring sings the song. "Death isn't the end. God loves to make everything new again!

There is a sweet anticipation in Spring. A newness of life. This children's book offers hope, redemption, and the promise of God. A good word to share with your children.

A special thank you to B&H Publishing and Netgalley for the ARC and the opportunity to post an honest review.

A simple and beautiful explanation of how Christ and the resurrection are reflected in nature.

With the rhyming pace and captivating illustrations we’ve come to expect from Ellie Holcomb’s books, even the youngest readers will be immediately drawn in.

Ellie shares simple truths that draw our attention to the reminder of who our creator is that are seen in nature. Her books and songs build a chorus in our minds that will be brought back to mind as we are in nature. Sealing those seeds of truth deep in all of our hearts.

This book will make a perfect Easter gift and will be one to revisit each year as spring blooms.

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Beautifully illustrated story told in verse, describing God’s love for us. Easter is a time of rebirth, including in nature around us. Delightful story told share with young readers!

I thought that this book was excellent and I have recommended it to the Catholic Primary School that my daughter attends - this would be a brilliant addition to their library and one for the class to read together - it is engaging and encourages them to sing and get involved.

The book is well written, it is easy to follow and it has some lovely illustrations too.
It is a great concept that is really well executed - a treat to read!

It is 5 stars from me for this one - very highly recommended!

Thank you to NetGalley and to the publisher for my gifted e-copy of this title.

I absolutely love Ellie Holcomb's music, and we have read and loved every children's book she's put out--"Spring Sings" is no different! This adorable, lyrical picture book is one you won't want to miss for your littles. We'll read this book again and again and will be most definitely purchasing a hard copy for our shelves.

Highly recommend!

Ellie Holcomb does it again with her effervescent prose declaring the gospel message along with the beautiful majesty of God’s creation. Plus the illustrations are equal parts adorable and lovely and have you wanting to spend time really exploring the magic on every page. This book will easily become a often repeated read in our house.
