Sweet illustrations, nice storyline, good fall vibes!

Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2019

I bought this book for my toddlers seasonal board book display/collection, along with several others and this is probably our favorite one! My four year old reaches for it daily. The illustrations are sweet and beautiful and give those autumn vibes I was hoping it would. It’s a sturdy book, the pages on the inside are matte and not glossy. I hope this author and illustrator team makes more board books!

Great little seasonal picture book! Excellent for younger elementary students who can decode basic words in sentences. Fun, colorful pictures with just enough detail to make the story interesting. As a school-based Speech-Language Pathologist, this fits my need for a seasonal read-aloud to foster thinking and discussion based on pictures/text. Will use to target wh- questions, story retelling, vocabulary development, and syntax. Thank you for the digital bonus feature of enlarged text when the reader double clicks. Very useful for both students and aging readers like me!

Granddaughter LOVED this book.

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2020

The main character is a girl. We named her after our granddaughter, who is just less than two years old. She loves the book. It is a wonderful introduction to the fall season. Lilly is pretty sure the farmer is actually her beloved Poppy. Worth every cent.

Simple, Montessori-friendly for toddlers & preschoolers

Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2020

Verified Purchase

Very sweet and simple book. My two and four year olds love it, especially my two year old. It’s very Montessori friendly because it’s based in reality. We do several, if not all, of the activities written about. They are not overboard or written to be more exciting than they actually are; they give children realistic expectations and ideas for what the activities will be like, such as picking out pumpkins, carving them, and trick or treating. My four year old enjoyed memorizing portions of it. I know we will enjoy reading it again for fall time next year!

Hidden Halloween.

Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2022

Verified Purchase

Cute idea, but unfortunately it had Halloween items in it. It is difficult to find fall themed children’s books without Halloween themes. From the images it seemed this story was simply about going to an apple and pumpkin farm, but then you get to the last few pages and it quickly goes to Halloween and unpleasant costumes.

I’m sure for other families who participate in the day it’s fine, but for us it wasn’t going to work. Just wished the cover wasn’t so misleading.

Great for Signing!

I teach baby sign language classes and I used this for a Halloween lesson. It was perfect! Great illustrations and the story had just the right number of words for reading to a mixed-age group of 0-5 year-olds.
