Publisher Description
Caldecott Honor winning illustrator, A. Birnbaum has captured the childlike wonder of each season in this 1953 picture book. Green Eyes, the curious kitten, ventures beyond his familiar big red box and greets spring, summer, fall, and winter—each with their unique colors, scents, and feelings. Children will delight in discovery with Green Eyes as he ventures out and cozies up to the familiar warmth of home upon his return.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Green Eyes by Abe Birnbaum, a Caldecott Honor book first published in 1953, is now available in a deluxe edition. The white kitten of the title, boldly outlined in black line, grows and frolics through the seasons. In autumn, as leaves fall "slowly to the ground," the text mimics their movement. ( June)
