In Bustletown, fall brings vibrant changes and endless discoveries. As leaves fall and birds migrate, farmers ready fields and children return to school. Amidst the chaos of a water main break and a chimney sweeper's rooftop perch, familiar faces like a maestro and a balloon-toting nun appear. Each page invites young readers to spot pumpkins, explore markets, and join a lantern-lit harvest celebration. Dive into this lively world where every visit reveals new stories and adventures, capturing the essence of autumn's charm.

From the publisher

This fun, oversized board book introduces kids to the different ways we live, work, and play in fall. The leaves are blowing off the trees and the birds are flying south in Bustletown. Farmers are preparing the fields for winter and kids are back in school. And look, there’s a water main break that’s causing havoc and a chimney sweeper perched on a roof! Each time readers look at these delightfully detailed spreads they’ll discover something new, whether it’s what’s for sale at the outdoor market or how many pumpkins they can spot on a single page. Familiar characters appear on each page–a maestro and a violinist, a balloon-toting nun, and a mom with her baby. All the activity culminates in a harvest celebration lit by dozens of paper lanterns in every shape and size. In the tradition of Richard Scarry and Where’s Waldo, this book encourages kids to return again and again to these charming spreads, following along with the characters and inventing their own stories. As they peruse scenes from the home to the farm, from the shopping center to the park, kids will enjoy identifying the different things that fall brings.
