Hi friends!
As soon as I made part one of this series, I knew I had to make another. There are just too many beautiful picture book choices and it was so hard to narrow them down! So here we are again for round 2 at the start of the year. I’ve been reading our way through the seasons ever since my girls were born and each year, we find new seasonal books to add to our collection of favorites. This is not only a natural and lovely way to teach the months and seasons, but the most cuddly and snuggly way to do it. There is nothing better.
If your seasons do not align with ours, feel free to juggle things around.
Print this list or screenshot to reference it when you are choosing titles for your weekly library trips. I hope that you find something new and beautiful here. x
