Reception
Booklist, in a review of In for Winter, Out for Spring, wrote "Adoff has worked with many fine illustrators, but never has his poetry been more radiantly expressed than in Pinkney's watercolor and colored-pencil art.... The poetry is formatted in eye-catching designs that encourage effective reading, whether by adults or by middle-graders who will be able to handle this themselves."

School Library Journal wrote "While the meanings are readily accessible, it will take sophisticated readers to read these poems alone.... These poems would be best read aloud and discussed."

In for Winter, Out for Spring has also been reviewed by Kirkus Reviews, Publishers Weekly, and Texas Child Care Quarterly.
