About the Book

Book Synopsis

Selected as one of Oprah's Favorite Things 2024

As Oprah says on OprahDaily.com, 'These three beautifully designed books will introduce kids to life underwater, the galaxies above, and their own world here on earth.'

'A brilliant learning resource that will inspire children.' - Little Library Owl

A stunning addition to the bestselling Our World Collection, this colorful, creative picture book transforms into a freestanding globe.

Explore Earth's four seasons with this charming read-aloud introduction to weather around the world. Beautifully illustrated and cleverly designed, Our Seasons opens and folds back into a sturdy circular globe fastened by a hidden magnetic closure.

Rhyming verse and lush illustrations teach young children to identify and experience nature's circle of seasons - from vibrant autumn and frosty winter to blossoming spring and bountiful summer. Secondary text offers more detailed, curriculum-focused facts and encourages children to consider their own environments, presenting a personal perspective set against a global backdrop.

Inspiring, informative, and one-of-a-kind, this artful homage to Earth is both an invitation to explore the natural world and an object to be treasured for years to come.

Ages 2-6
