About The Book

Sugaring Time is Kathryn Lasky's unforgettable work of narrative nonfiction—illustrated by the incomparable Christopher G. Knight.

"In lyrical prose and black-and-white photographs, Lasky's book depicts the Lacey family of Vermont making maple syrup...A rare kind of nonfiction, informative yet as easily read as fiction." (School Library Journal)
