Laurent de Brunhoff (Author)

Book Description

Babar and his family gather apples and corn in the fall, go skiing in the winter, garden in the spring, and swim in the summer.

This review is from: Babar's Busy Year (Just Right for 2's and 3's) (Hardcover)

This is an old classic but a good one. My great-granddaughter loved it. The pictures are beautifully done and really attractive to small readers. I cannot tell you what she thinksabout it, but since she constantly picks it out of her little stack of books feel I made a really good choice.
