Written by Barbara Pinke

Illustrated by Alvin Adhi

This book can be purchased on its own or as part of a series about the seasons.

Each page contains a single sentence about the summer season. The author includes the sights, sounds, and experiences that commonly occur during the summer. The multicultural illustrations portray a variety of emotions expressed by the characters.

Because the language is simple and easy to remember, it is easy for the youngest reader to pick up and recollect. Not only do children learn about the summer season, but they also develop language skills.

A fun read-aloud for teachers or parents of toddlers and preschoolers.

The Adventures of Kaboose the Rocky Mountain Bear

Written by Papa Rick Harris and Kyra Dumoulin

Illustrated by Simon Goodway

This book introduces Kaboose, a Rocky Mountain Bear.

The approach is unique. First, it is a charming tale about how a community of black bears awaits the birth of a cub. The author relates a story that explores the history of the Canadian Rockies and life in the Arrow Valley, exploring its sights, sounds, smells, and connection to railroad history.

The illustrations are expressive and colorful, and the characters are charming.

Looks like a promising new series for readers ages six to ten.

What a fun book to read aloud for young children!

Especially recommended for ages three through eight, but a delightful read for age.
