Fort building and the four seasons come together to show readers that fort building can come any time of the year. It's a fun story!

Reviewed from a library copy.

This book is beautiful and I love everything about it. Fort-Building Time takes you through the seasons in lyrical prose to encourage creative play. Boy, did I need this right about now as I sit here with the gazillionth day in a row of subzero temperatures. Plus, the gorgeous illustrations of quilts weren’t missed by this quilt-making mama.

FORT-BUILDING TIME is an absolutely delightful and lyrical story about the fun of creation and playing outdoors throughout the seasons. The illustrations are whimsical and filled with detail, and the text itself is artwork in itself. This title is a required purchase for elementary libraries and will be a perfect storytime read for primary grades.

Thanks to the author and publisher for providing me with a review copy of this title.
