Illustrated by
Laura Dronzek.
This companion to When Spring Comes is a quietly joyful paean to autumn and to the changeability of the seasons. Lush acrylic paintings in vivid autumnal colors foreground "frisky" gray squirrels; nodding, browned sunflower heads; plump orange pumpkins; and shiny red apples that look "like ornaments." The text is brief but lyrical, pitched perfectly to preschoolers.
