Vivid color illustrations are printed on heavy board pages, each board page having a different size and shape, and followed with paper pages in the same shape. When closed, the book presents a layered, three-dimensional effect that will appeal to early-grades children. Each illustration shows children at play beneath a handsome apple tree. In spring the tree is festooned with blossoms, in summer it displays bright green leaves and red fruit, in fall the leaves have turned golden, and in winter, the leafless branches are decorated with snow. The text is easy for kids to comprehend as it explores the beauty of each season. Here is an unusually attractive introduction to the four seasons for little boys and girls.
