Magical

We checked out this book at the library because it was one of the books on a list of autumn-themed books to read. I knew I'd enjoy it, but was skeptical that my active three-year-old would. He's only recently started sitting still long enough to be read to, and only for very short stories. Well, imagine my surprise when this book became his absolute favorite! He asks for it to be read to him multiple times a day, he finishes many of the sentences for me...and he likes to talk about the characters even when we're not reading the book. The illustrations are exquisite and the characters charming. My son especially likes September, the mischievous little fellow who leads Christopher around the garden in search of his missing ball. I think he really identifies with his pranksterish spirit!

Get ready to read it over and over.

My son, and now my daughter, 2 1/2 love this book. There is such a magical quality to the illustrations and writings. It has a relaxing quality that is just right for bedtime reading. This is one of Elsa Beskow's best!
