About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when looking for a peaceful way to celebrate the changing seasons or to introduce the alphabet through the lens of nature and joy. Summer: An Alphabet Acrostic guides children from A to Z through the simple pleasures of the season, from 'August days' to 'Zzzz's in a hammock'. Each letter is paired with a gentle, poetic phrase and a warm, full-page illustration. The emotional themes are pure joy, wonder, and a quiet appreciation for the outdoors and family time. Perfect for ages 2 to 6, this book is less a story and more a beautiful, shared experience, making it an excellent vocabulary builder and a calm-down book for a warm evening.
