The Growing Story

by Ruth Krauss

As the seasons shift from spring to summer, a little boy watches new life bloom all around him—chicks become chickens, his puppy grows tall, and the fields burst into colour. But while everything else seems to be changing, he wonders if he’s growing too. With gentle reassurance from his mother, he learns that some growth takes time, and that even the smallest changes matter.
