The illustrations in this book were beautiful and I loved the rhyming verse technique Pinkney used.  I liked that it showed a girl living in the countryside because I think it is a beautiful place that not a lot of people see.  Students living in urban and suburban areas may enjoy seeing this different side that they are unfamiliar with.
