Each of the four seasons are illustrated in heartwarming detail by Pedro Serapicos. The story begins in the child’s birth season, and shows them experiencing all four seasons for the first time – from spring sunshine to autumn leaves.

This book is available in two versions: one for newborns and one for baby’s first birthday. The tense changes depending on which one you choose, making the book either a wish for baby’s year ahead, or a celebration of the year that’s been. So this book is perfect for either a newborn gift or a first birthday present.

Every child develops at their own pace, and so this book doesn’t specify when little ones reach each milestone. The story picks out the most precious moments from a baby’s first year (like playing with their toes, or trying new foods) but doesn’t put a date on them. Even if some of your baby’s highlights happen in a different order to the story, it’s still a precious keepsake of moments you’ll want to remember forever.
