TREE: Seasons Come, Seasons Go
By Britta Teckentrup,
written by Patricia Hegarty

Amazon Description:
Explore the beauty of the changing seasons in this timeless peek-through book with beautiful artwork from Britta Teckentrup and accompanying rhyming text. Following the life-cycle of a tree through spring, summer, autumn and winter, children will easily learn to recognise the signs of the seasons...

Back Cover Description:
Peek through the holes in the tree to find a busy world of nature at work through rain and shine, wind and snow.

My Thoughts:
This delightful picture book is sure to thrill any youngster, while educating them about the seasons at the same time! The little horned owl is ever-present as you turn a page, until late winter when he hides inside the tree. Then, when spring reappears, he magically peeks out. A charming and creative book, with whimsical drawings. I highly recommend Tree: Seasons Come, Seasons Go to all little readers!
