National Trust: When Autumn Comes (1-4 years)
Third in a series of four sweet and simple stories about a young child’s joyful discovery of nature through the seasons.
When autumn comes, the leaves are changing colour on the trees, the birds are flying south and the sleepy hedgehog is settling down for his winter sleep. Pine cones, apples and a shiny conker in its spiky case, picking pumpkins with Mum and raking leaves with Dad, before sharing apple pie, warm and cosy as the wind whistles outside – there is so much to see and do as the natural world prepares for the coming winter. And one little girl is loving every magical moment!
Fall in love with the wonder of autumn in this beautiful first picture book.
