The Four Seasons cover

A little story with cute characters explaining the basics of seasons and the weather in an interactive format accompanied by a search-and-find game.

In this engaging story, young readers will learn about the four seasons and the different types of weather that accompany each one. Talia and her beloved pets – Coco the cat and Moon the dog – will take children on a journey through the year, exploring the unique characteristics of each season and how they impact the world around us. Along the way, children will discover interesting facts about the Earth and the sun and why we have seasons.

This book also includes a search-and-find game, adding an extra layer of fun and engagement to the learning experience:

Can you spot?

  • A fox
  • 5 sunflowers
  • A purple butterfly

This book is a great addition to any young reader’s collection, offering a fun and engaging way to learn about the seasons and the weather. Ideal for children aged 3–6, it is designed to be both entertaining and educational. With charming illustrations and a playful tone, The Four Seasons is perfect for children who are curious about the world around them and interested in the weather.

"If your kids don't like to read non-fiction books to learn, this is one where they won't know they are learning! Author, Joli Hannah and Illustrator, Amanda Gulliver did a fabulous job with this book. I will be reading this to my children often!!" —Morgan Ludlow, NetGalley-Reviewer

"This was a cute, engaging story for young readers. The seasons are described through simple, easy to understand descriptions. My son enjoyed the interactive features. The illustrations are cute." —Carla W, NetGalley-Reviewer

"It's a great book for entertaining all of us. The illustrations by Amanda Gulliver are delightful, imaginative, and colorful. Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, but especially to a school or public library!!" —NetGalley-Reviewer

"Part of the "Read and Spot" series, The Four Seasons is a delightful picturebook to read aloud and share with little ones ages 3 and up. Cut-out circular windows in the pages and a simple search-and-find game enhance this simple yet charming educational book about spring, summer, fall, and winter through the eyes of the girl Talia and her pet cat and dog. The Four Seasons does not have any pop-up components or flaps, and therefore is durable enough to be a welcome addition to children's public library collections. Highly recommended." —Midwest Book Review-Children's Bookwatch

"This was another enjoyable interactive read, my children loved spotting their way through The Four Seasons. I like the added easy explanation of why we have seasons. It makes for a great introduction to earth sciences and climate. The illustrations are fantastic. I love how the cut outs change the appearance/activity of what it highlights for that spread; ie.: a vase of yellow flowers on one page is a garden with the same flowers. The items to spot are the perfect blend of ease and challenge, giving slightly older kids the opportunity to interact with the story while still being perfect for young children as well." —Cherokee Crum, YA Books Central

"I loved this children's book, which is about a little girl called Talia who, along with her pets, explore the different seasons and find out why they occur on the earth. The illustrations in the book are amazing and colourful and the characters are cute. I highly recommend this book, especially for children aged 3-6, although I think all children would love it!" —Catherine Craig, Bookseller
