How we experience the seasons is a topic that young readers can connect to since we all share this ever-changing planet. A somewhat meatier text for young readers that ties in familiar images of apple picking and snowball fights with some quality scientific explanations of how seasons occur in simpler terms. Details about seasonal animal sightings encourage readers to look outside their windows. Photographs show diverse children and families frolicking in the summer or bundled up in the winter as they make it through their cycle of seasons. VERDICT A nice update to the popular season books that incorporates the human element of experiencing seasons as well as the planetary aspects.
