Recommendations from our site
A comforting picture book with 12 double-page spreads, one for each month of the year. There are also a few information pages about how the woods change through the (northern hemisphere) seasons and the small mammals that live there. The lovely illustrations of woodland scenes are accompanied by gentle rhyming text and flaps that can be lifted to look inside the houses of the anthropomorphic animals. Perfect for snuggly story time and plenty of details to talk about with young children.
Ages 3-6
