Then, sometimes quite suddenly, a fresh wind blows and the summer is over. The days are shorter. September is here. Now the days are cooler and a sense of change is in the air...

Yes, the days are certainly growing shorter and cooler around here. That means more time to snuggle up with a good book - and blog! What have you been reading with your little ones? Looking forward to catching up with everyone! :)

Oh great, I'll check to see if any of them are at the library! We love "Autumn" by Gerda Muller. It's currently open on display on our nature table. The illustration are just so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDo you have the whole seasonal set? I've never seen them in person, only online. They look really lovely.
DeleteYes we have the four of them. Finn received each one on the first day of a new season last year :) They are gorgeous. I forgot to mention the book "In the town all year round" by Rotraut Susanne Berner. Another wordless seasonal book in a style of intricate drawings teeming with details.
Delete"In Town All Year Round" looks excellent - I just checked it out on Amazon. Thanks for the suggestion! I love the idea of giving a Gerda Muller book on the first day of each season!
Delete"Old Bear" is delightful.
