Bookroo's summary

A picture-book collection of poems that explores the natural world through the seasons: spring bugs and showers, summer storms and beaches, autumn leaf piles and trick-or-treating, winter snowy nights and sledding hills. The sun, the moon and other everyday wonders invite young readers out to play.

From the publisher

Children explore nature in all its everyday wonders in this joyful, jubilant first poetry collection picture book from a Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor-winning author and a Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator--just right for budding readers! I guess the Sun was lonely-- That's why she sent a ray To knock upon my sleepy eye And ask me out to play Join the sun, moon, and other wonders of the natural world throughout the year. Whether it's springtime bugs and showers, summer storms and beaches, fall leaf piles and trick-or-treating, or winter snowy nights and sledding hills, the gifts nature brings us are celebrated with short but sweet verse--all guided by the happy sun that shines season after season, year after year.
