Visually, this book is beautiful. Unfortuantely, many children may not appreciate this as much as an adult, or even a photographer, would. In fact, this book does feel like a photographic indulgence rather than a book aimed at getting a child's attention. However, the small amount of text nicely pulls things together, and this book brings the imagination right into the seasons of topic. Overall, this book is worth adding to the collection, but it may not have a high rate of circulation.
