The author tells the story of the changing seasons with rhyme and beautiful imagery. The art and illustrations throughout the book were made up of different objects instead of just a drawing or paintings, giving the book a more childish and homemade feel.

Unfortunately for the Fall season the author chose a Halloween theme, which made this book undesirable in my home. It's a shame authors can't choose things like harvest or Thanksgiving as representative of Fall instead. Very nicely done pictures, "whimsical, playful collage paintings full of buttons, ribbons, feathers, and more."

Pleasant rhymes from Spring and back.

Love the pictures and the explanation of the cyclical nature of the seasons.

I like the writing (about enjoying all seasons, including as a family). I like the content of the art, but it's not my favorite style.
