Our Review

This uniquely shaped board book invites the littlest readers into a changing forest through its innovative, layered pages that build into a complete landscape. Celebrated illustrator Ingela Arrhenius uses her signature, bold retro art to depict a charming woodland scene that transforms with each turn of the page, moving through the seasons from a snowy winter to a vibrant spring. The simple, concept-based text introduces early vocabulary about weather, animals, and nature, making this an engaging first look at the natural world. The book's format itself is a tactile discovery, with each page's unique die-cut shape overlapping the next.

The chunky, toy-like quality of this book makes it exceptionally durable and easy for small hands to grasp and manipulate, encouraging independent exploration. Beyond its sturdy construction, the book's true magic lies in how the dimensional pages create an immersive, miniature world that feels like a playset, perfectly capturing a toddler's attention span. Parents seeking a multi-sensory reading experience that combines early learning concepts with imaginative play will find this a standout addition to their child's first library. It’s a visually striking and cleverly designed introduction to seasons and storytelling.
