Sammy in the Fall Hardcover
by Anita Bijsterbosch (Author)
We read this story few days ago. My preschooler wanted to read this again and she referred to it as the rainbow story.
The motifs of fall leaves, hedgehogs, mushrooms, squirrels, acorns and chestnuts are cute. The peeka-boo surprise is cute. kids do enjoy that kind of thing of hiding and finding.
On the second read, we notice the white bark of the aspen trees.
The colors and illustrations are cute. The window as the frame of the outside world works very well. You see fall and rainfall through it.
Hob's character has been well done too as both animate (falling asleep during bedtime story) and inanimate at once. Just noticed the little sail boat in the house.
Creative idea of making spider web with yarn and sticks. Cameos by parrot and owl dont go by unnoticed.
