Seasons

By Heidi Goennel

This story is told from the point of view of a child. The child tells you that he likes each season because of what he gets to do. He goes through each season and tells you what the weather is like, and what he likes to do most in that season like fly kits, go trick or treating, eat ice cream and so on.

I like this book for my unit because it's a little different. All of the other books that I have read so far about seasons have been strictly about the weather. This story is about how the changing seasons bring new and fun activities for children to do! This book is set up a little different than the majority of the books I've read so far this semester. The illustrations are much darker in color, and it doesn't seem to follow one character. It sounds like one person telling the story, but the illustrations are of many different children partaking in the activity mentioned. I liked this aspect of the book because it shows that everyone can do these things!
