'Using simple language full of rich and playful adjectives, Brocket briefly explores each of the seasons. The close-up, intensely colored photographs are as inviting as the text and echo the colors suggested for each season. Brocket condenses a lot of information into a small space. The sprightly text combined with the outstanding photographs make this an excellent choice for the youngest nonfiction fans.' Marge Loch-Wouters, La Crosse Public Library
