  • Paper quality
  • I would recommend it for purchase
  • I would choose a book by the same author
  • Was it interesting enough?
  • In this book, a squirrel and a bird, two inseparable friends, teach young children about one of the four seasons, Autumn. A funny book with wonderful illustrations and small dialogues that keep the children's interest. We also have the other two from the same series, "My Flower" and "The Snow Thief."

  • Beautiful, simple story with vibrant illustrations. We learn about the elements of the autumn season, and we also have the second in the series that talks about spring, which is very nice too. It's called "My Flower." And the characters have a bit of humor too ☺️

    All Icarus children's books have "fit well" with our little one (18+ months). This particular one is nice (and funny), it makes sense (which the child must be 3+ to understand) and has beautiful illustrations

  • Very nice book keeps the child's interest. Perfect for talking about the autumn season. The illustrations are also nice! They chose it at the children's bookstore and they read it. I bought it for 12.90€ from a local bookstore in Heraklion, Crete. Here you will definitely find it cheaper.

  • Very nice book, with short text, wonderful colors and illustrations. My 4-year-old girls liked it a lot and we read it every day. We bought it for this season, which is autumn, and it fits perfectly. We have also bought other books from IKAROS editions that we liked equally and were very well-made.

    Very good story, it teaches the child (and also the adults) that sometimes things are not exactly as we have imagined them in our minds. There is another truth out there...
