My daughter absolutely LOVES this book. It's not the most interesting read for the adult though, it's very repetitive. The art work throughout the book is so beautiful which makes it hard to dislike the book. This was my daughter's nightly favorite until the seasons changed.

Beautiful Book to Preschoolers!

Overall we enjoyed this book. The details were beautiful and the book was written in a way that a group of children of multiple ages would understand or be able to interpret from the graphics. In some ways though, I thought this book was a little more on the simpler side for my children, compared to our usual stories, but they still enjoyed it. They just didn't love it.

Beautiful illustrations. Simple text.

We enjoyed reading this. It's beautifully illustrated, and the text reads almost like a poem. As an extra nice little addition, you'll notice the boy in the story passes out flowers to everyone he passes on his walk-- something you don't notice until you read it a few times. Very sweet.

Great Series

As an artist, I look for amazing illustrations. As a former elementary teacher, I look for books with simple yet captivating words. This gem does both so well! I love the repetition (which I’m normally not a fan of) and the way it prepares us for change. There’s not really much of a story line but it’s enjoyable for any age.

This book is perfect for curling up with on a cooler fall day.

I absolutely love the changing seasons from summer into fall. GOODBYE SUMMER, HELLO AUTUMN captures some of the things I love about the changing of the seasons, perfectly. Both in story telling, and vivid fall colored illustrations, Pak helps readers understand the changing of the warm summer days, into the chilly shorter fall days. Joining the young girl on her walk from her house, through the woods and country, and into her small town, and back again, readers see how nature prepares itself for the change from summer to autumn. As the girl welcomes the changes, she's greeted by nature, who tells her of each change. From the fox getting ready to hibernate, to the last of the summer flowers, to the chilly wind, everything has a purpose. With bright colorful changes on the trees, flowers and leaves, to the animals and bugs making preparations for cooler weather, readers see how everything gets ready for fall. This is a delightful story with charming illustrations. I love the diverse characters featured in this book, and all the details featured in each of the pages of this book. This book is perfect for curling up with on a cooler fall day.
