I have been searching for this book for 20 years. An absolute favorite.

I received this book as a gift from a family member when I was a young teen. Dubious about how much I'd enjoy it, I put it aside for a while until a terrible, rainy February day when I was all in a snit about the weather and thinking that spring would never come.The first lines of the book snared me and reeled me in for the long haul, "The great grey beast February had eaten Harvey Swick alive. Here he was, buried in the belly of that smothering month, wondering if he would ever find his way out through the cold coils that lay between here and Easter."This fable goes into some interesting territory, and I'd encourage it for just about anyone to enjoy when they think that there is no end to the shortest month of the year.
