Golden Months of Ram Merino

Yarn, a sheep, explains the twelve months of the year to his flock in The Golden Months of Ram Merino. Set in a medieval world shared by friendly animals and a small band of knights, each month is introduced by a full-page illustration followed by a description of the actions pictured. An impatient fox, who hurries from one month to the next, learns a valuable lesson by years end. For his part, Ram Merino himself can only sigh: My goodness, how much wool we gather in a year!The Golden Months of Ram Merino encourages children to discover their own imaginary worlds by exploring works of art, then drawing or writing their own story about what they have seen.
