Summer (Seasons board books)

Really beautiful illustrations! I missed the wordless book part. Regardless, love the book. It’s really beautiful. It allows you to have an imagination.

Purchased this book as a Summer Solstice present for my two boys, ages 2 and 15 months. The whole family loves all of the books in this seasonal series but this one is particularly wonderful. The idyllic scenes of childhood are refreshing and the pictures filled with detail. I think I see something new in each picture each time we look through the book. As much as my children enjoy these books now (they bring them to me multiple times a day), it is fun to think about them making up stories to go with the pictures as they get older. I have also taken to buying the appropriate season book for friends as baby shower or children's birthday gifts and all have enjoyed them.

My son is being raised trilingual. Because this series of books has no text and the situations that they describe are universal, they are perfect for multilingual kids. I can talk about the scenes in whatever language I am talking to the child at the time, and am also able to present the same set of words in different languages. The pictures are very detailed and realistic. There's also a nice progression in each season depicted. For e.g, summer starts with children catching fish at the lake for their aquarium, then children playing at the beach, flying kites, eating ice-cream, family time indoors and outdoors, and finally the first day of school signaling the end of summer.

Wordless yet extraordinarilly beautiful and detailed in illustration. The seasonal books (there are four of them for each season) have an old world's charm and peace. Many Waldorf websites recommend this book, so do a few Montessori supply websites. My two year old son and I enjoy reading them together so much. I make up stories, and my little boy loves pointing out details in the books. The beauty of the books will not disappoint. Children respond to such beauties.

We have had all the books in this series for many years and they are favorites of ours. My children love the detailed pictures, and I enjoy being able to tell a new story each time since there is no text. The images include children of many races and ages doing many interesting summer activities, and the world of summer in nature: catching fish, swimming at the beach, thunderstorms, and more.

My 2 year and 2 month old loves looking at the soft images in this book. Every time we read I narrate what I see and make up little stories. He loves seeing other kids doing various activities

This series of seasons books by Gerda Muller were highly recommended by other parents. I can't be happier with them. There are no words/plot, just engaging scenes of children doing seasonal activities. My two year old can't get enough of them. The pictures are so active and full of detail that they capture his imagination and he pours over the pictures and talks about what he sees. This is a wonderful way to introduce seasons to a child.

My children enjoy this series very much, the illustrations lead you to tell the story as you see it, a wonderful opportunity for non-readers! The book moves through the months of summer via the children's activities and appears to end with them heading back to school, very cute! I would suggest these books for 1-6 year olds.

Çok güzel

Que dire, cette collection de livres de Gerda Miller sont superbes, sans texte, ce qui invite l’enfant à plus d’observation et de participation pour raconter ce qu’ils y voient. Et comme c’est très riche de détails? Il y en a des choses à voir et à raconter. Parfait pour appuyer nos tables d’observation de la nature

No words, just beautifully painted and carefully crafted illustrations that invite you to get creative and storytell. Therefore is great for babies as is for older kids. Each page shares a seasonal scene or two we talk about or play "I spy".

Nos fascina esta colección. Ilustraciones preciosas, muy cuidadas. Son libros ideales para fomentar la expresión oral y la imaginación al no tener texto.

Love this book - it is purely pictures but it's so nice to search for things on each page and make up a little story. My little one loves it and it's one he asks to look at every day - will be getting the other seasons also!
