Four Seasons Make a Year

by Anne F. Rockwell

Four Seasons Make a Year Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Each season brings new surprises and discoveries. In the spring, leaves sprout, showers come, and it's time for planting. Bees buzz and roses bloom as summer arrives. The fall turns pumpkins orange and leaves red and gold, and the wind grows cold. In wintertime, snow twirls down, and the flames in the fireplace leap and glow. Next year, it will all happen again, but it will be a little different, too. Everything is always growing and changing on a farm. Beloved author Anne Rockwell takes young readers through the year. Megan Halsey's charming collage illustrations are the perfect complement to this delightful introduction to the wonders of the seasons.

Synopsis:

All children delight in learning the special joys of the four seasons. Rockwell and Halsey motivate young scientists to observe and explore the changes in their own environments. Illustrations.
