Over and Over by Charlotte Zolotow with pictures by Garth Williams c1957 renewed 1985. Published by HarperCollins : New York

Once there was a girl so little she didn’t know about the seasons or the days of the week. Christmas trees and pumpkins were all mixed up in her mind. Her mother helps her know which special days to expect as the year unfolds.

I read this to the kindergarten classes and it always held their rapt attention. Nothing looms bigger than the next holiday or birthday in elementary school! Who better to write and illustrate the story than the team of Zolotow and Williams? This book will get requests, you can bet on it.
