Autumn (Seasons)

🍂 With an autumnal theme, this is simply a durable, thick cardboard paged book that measures around 20 cm square with rounded corners.Accompanying the short pieces of text across each 6 double page spreads, the illustrations offer scope for further discussion, and, perhaps, encourage a bit of autumnal drawing & colouring in as extension work, if not out & about playing in the fallen leaves.From the back cover:🍂 ‘There’s something special about each season of the year, wherever we live in the world.Follow the children in this book as they discover and explore the unique character of autumn, through indoor and outdoor play...'~ TITLE: AUTUMN~ AUTHOR: CHILD’S PLAY (INTERNATIONAL) LTD~ ILLUSTRATOR: AILIE BUSBY~ 2015‘Printed in China’One of a series that also includes: WINTER SPRING SUMMERWINTERSPRINGSUMMER

I love these books because they introduce the seasons in sensory descriptive ways like wrapping up in a cosy fleece, collecting acorns, kicking crunchy leaves, picking juicy blackberries, baking warm tarts, making art. It's just a beautiful introduction to Autumn. My daughters loved this book so much that I've ve just bought the winter book from the same author and I plan to buy the spring and summer books too.

This is a lovely story perfect for toddlers who are only just learning about the seasons. My two year old really studies the pictures, probably because there are lots of familiar ideas and scenes for her to relate to. The characters hear rustling leaves, collect acorns, pick juicy blackberries, splash in puddles, bake with friends, harvest fruit and make art with their Autumn collection.The copy I received is a sturdy board book with smooth, curved corners ideal for little hands. It would be a nice addition to a nursery school topic but would work just as well as a bedtime tale.

Beautiful book, I love it as much as my daughter !!!! It has become a bedtime favourite and it also fits in nicely with the EYFS syllabus too!

Is a good book for young children, describes some of activities we do during Autumn and the kids love to see the children in the book doing similar things to them, the colours and pictures are pretty too.
