Winter : Gerda Muller: desertcart.co.uk: Books Review: Beautiful Book - We're collecting one each season as our little ones loves these books! The pictures are beautiful and relect lots of the sorts of things going on at home. We particularly liked the move from Christmas to Spring on the last page, which made the transition of taking down the tree and lights a bit easier (as someone was a little upset). Lovely that you can make up our own narratives and especially enjoyable by those far to young to read books or cope with involved stories. Our little one will quite happily 'read' this on her own Review: Part of a wonderful series for for urban children - Gorgeous illustrations with lots to talk about and to encourage speech about in young toddlers. Perfect for 1-2 year olds (but my 4 year old loves them just as much). They present an idyll of childhood we parents can only aspire to recreate. Enjoy!

great book!
I'm going through all Gerda Muller's season books and I think they are perfect for little children. My son (aged 21 mo) really likes to watch the pictures and talk about them.

Petit livre qui nous parle de l’hiver à travers divers illustrations. Même si la quatrième de couverture est en anglais c’est pas gênant car il n’y a pas de texte dans le livre. Livre magnifique

No words, just beautifully painted and carefully crafted illustrations that invite you to get creative and storytell. Therefore is great for babies as is for older kids. Each page shares a seasonal scene or two we talk about or play "I spy".

I previously reviewed the "Autumn" book from the same line very positively, and I give this one an equally enthusiastic 5 stars. I cannot stress enough how wonderful books with no words and beautiful illustrations are for the cognitive and language development of young children. Without focusing on a strict storyline (although the pictures and scenes in this book definitely connect to one another) children are able to really look and observe all of the little details that are happening on each page. I especially love that in these books (it was the same in the "Autumn" one, so I'm assuming it runs throughout the series) that there is a two-page spread of a lovely illustration depicting a seasonal scene, and then the following spread has little vignettes that show what happened next from the previous page. For example, one spread in this book shows the backyard of the family, with a child rolling up a large snowball, and another placing food in a large birdfeeder. In the vignettes on the following page, one is a snowman made from the snowball and other accessories that were in the yard on the previous page, and another is the birdfeeder with various creatures enjoying the treats placed there. My daughter, who is almost 3, loves these books, and so do the children in the morning playgroup that I run a few days a week. We will definitely be purchasing the spring and summer books in this series as those season approach!
