Description
Celebrate the seasons with young children!
Summer is one of the four wordless Seasons books created by renowned illustrator Gerda Muller. Loved for almost 30 years, the Seasons books are full of lively and charming vintage illustrations, which children will enjoy returning to again and again.
This chunky board book shares the joys of the season -- fishing for tadpoles, days at the beach, eating ice-cream, and picking berries.
Created without words, this delightful book encourages very young children to engage with the illustrations, create their own stories and spot details in the summer scenes.
