Autumn Walk

Elegantly written, beautifully illustrated... I'm always happy when my 2.5 yr old pulls this or "Winter Walk" out for a read. I hope these books gain the recognition they deserve -- in our family, they hold a treasured place right alongside "Goodnight Moon" and "The Happy Lion." Bring on the Spring and Summer Walks!

This is a sweet book for all ages. The way that the book is written is absolute poetry. I have read this book to our twins since they were about 3 months old. They love the colors and the story of a cute puppy who takes a walk in the autumn air. It brings up so many different possibilities for discussion to expand children's ideas of autumn in a fun way. I wholeheartedly recommend this book. Even adults will enjoy the creative descriptions. It will take you back to Thanksgiving at Grandma's house!

My 10 month old daughter loves this book...it is one of her favorites. My husband and I also enjoyed reading it to her. It is one of those books that you can read again and again and enjoy it every time. We just brought Winter Walk and are hoping the author will write a Spring and Summer Walk. A definite must-read!

Autumn Walk by Ann Burg is a fantastic book that celebrates autumn in all its glory! The language is wonderful and evokes the feeling of fall and all the sensations that go with it. The illustrations by Kelly Asbury are also terrific. The cute little puppy gets suited up and tromps around the neighborhood full of fall colors: orange, gold, red, and brown. I am currently reading this story to my young infant while she enjoys the beautiful colors and the rhythmic sound of my voice reading the poem while at the same time it is equally enjoyed by my 3 year old as he learns about all the exciting changes that autumn brings. This book will soon be a classic for every small child!

Kelly Asbury illustrates another soon-to-be classic with AUTUMN WALK. Asbury's visual pizzazz lends itself perfectly to Ann Burg's winning text. This is a warm and fuzzy book that will help young kids learn about that brisk, crunchy time of year called Autumn. It's fun to read and look at...as are all books illustrated by the great Kelly Asbury. Collect 'em while you can folks, Asbury's books are all classics for the ages and you'll want a first edition!
