Waiting by Kevin Henkes

Five toys sit on a windowsill, each appreciating different aspects of their life.  Each one waits for its highlight throughout the year.  The pig anticipates rain while the owl looks forward to the moon.
This is a quiet book with not any action.  As my six year old and I read this together, I found myself asking him a lot of questions and having him make inferences.
Strategies: asking questions, inferring
This is a sweet book but I am not sure how many children will want to read it again.  This book is probably my least favorite by this author.
