A gorgeous picture book that celebrates the magic of the seasons and the joys of family. Come next season . . . The lake will sparkle. The leaves will fall from the trees. We'll play all day in the snow. We'll visit the farm-and maybe make a friend. Every season is full of its own magic, every change brings new excitement, and every experience is better when it's shared. With poetic text from bestselling author Kim Norman, brought to life by critically acclaimed illustrator Daniel Miyares, Come Next Season is a celebration of nature, adventure, and family-all year round.
"Norman expertly conjures what seasonal change feels like in the country with delicious sensory details and warm, family togetherness. . .Wholesome, cozy, and nostalgic; pitch perfect." --Kirkus Reviews
"The carefully chosen words and images evoke sensory experiences and memories. Warmed with touches of vivid colors, Miyares' paintings portray the children in reflective and active moments, while showing seasonal shifts around them. A beautiful picture book that reads aloud well." --Booklist
"A year-round celebration. . .A book for all seasons, perfect for individual or small group sharing." --School Library Journal
