Hello Autumn!

About the Book

"Green leaves are turning colors. . . . Maple seeds twirl to the ground. . . . Animals get ready for the cold days ahead."

A simple text and vivid photographs show children the changes in animals, plants, and landscapes that occur during fall.  Leaves change, animals prepare for winter, and people celebrate autumn holidays as the weather gets cooler and the days get shorter.  

Suitable for young readers, the simple text introduces a number of important concepts-- such as hibernation, migration, and seed dispersal-- in clear terms, without too much detail.  For older readers, a brief author's note at the end expands on several concepts.  

Shelley Rotner's energetic photographs of diverse children add vitality and warmth to this celebration of the season, capturing the brilliance of the autumn sky, the saturation of autumn leaves, and the joy of kids interacting with the natural world.  

Follow the changing seasons through the year with the rest of the Hello Seasons! series.

Reviews

"Rotner vividly captures quintessential aspects of autumn while emphasizing observable changes that are constantly occurring in nature."—Publishers Weekly
 
"Children will learn to cherish the fall season after reading Rotner's latest. . . . The title is also great for encouraging tactile learning and exploration; kids will be begging to go outside and experience the season for themselves. An artful and informative addition to early nonfiction nature collections."—School Library Journal
 
"As in the previous book, the photographs (presented here in a variety of sizes and layouts, all clean) are the stars here, displaying both the myriad changes of the season and a multicultural array of children enjoying the outdoors in fall." —Kirkus Reviews
