‘A brilliant learning resource that will inspire children.’ – Little Library Owl
A stunning addition to the bestselling Our World Collection, this colorful, creative picture book transforms into a freestanding globe.
Explore Earth’s four seasons with this charming read-aloud introduction to weather around the world. Beautifully illustrated and cleverly designed, Our Seasons opens and folds back into a sturdy circular globe fastened by a hidden magnetic closure.
Rhyming verse and lush illustrations teach young children to identify and experience nature’s circle of seasons – from vibrant autumn and frosty winter to blossoming spring and bountiful summer. Secondary text offers more detailed, curriculum-focused facts and encourages children to consider their own environments, presenting a personal perspective set against a global backdrop.
Inspiring, informative, and one-of-a-kind, this artful homage to Earth is both an invitation to explore the natural world and an object to be treasured for years to come.
