I adored this book!
The illustrations are FANTASTIC! They are humorous but not over the top, beautiful without being too elegant. It’s truly a wonderful balance.

The story is fun without being too simplistic, so children can expand their vocabulary. There is conflict without being aggressive or violent. It has a wonderful moral that comes across in a fun and affectionate way and teaches about the seasons.
One of my favorite picture books of the year.
