About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when the first cool breeze of September arrives or when a child starts asking why the green leaves are turning brittle and gold. Hello Autumn is a gentle poetic bridge that helps young children transition from the high energy of summer to the reflective, cozy atmosphere of fall. It translates the scientific changes of the season into sensory experiences: the crunch of leaves, the taste of harvest, and the feeling of a warm sweater. Through simple verse, it encourages children to practice mindfulness and gratitude for the natural world. This collection is ideally suited for preschoolers and early elementary students, offering a comforting rhythm that makes the changing world feel exciting rather than unpredictable. It is a perfect choice for winding down at bedtime or for a quiet morning reading session to build vocabulary related to nature and the environment.
What Parents Should Know

Ideal Reader
A 4-year-old child who is a keen observer of their backyard. It is perfect for the child who collects acorns in their pockets or pauses to listen to the wind, as it validates their natural curiosity about environmental shifts.
