Bella loves the sights and sounds of fall -- the crinkle-crackle of fallen leaves, the crunch of crisp, red apples, the honking and flapping of migrating geese. She wants the season to last forever. She also wants her fall coat -- the one her Grams made especially for her -- to last forever. But the coat is worn-out and too small....With a snip and a whir, Grams makes sure Bella will be warm when the first snowflakes fall. And Bella finds a perfect use for her old favorite coat -- on the first snowman of the season.
Adorned with beautiful fall oranges, reds, and yellows, and sprinkled with fun sound words, this read-aloud will help families celebrate both fall and winter.
"Plourde's lovely text about the ephemeral nature of objects and seasons -- and the lasting love of family -- is beautifully realized by Gal's expressive, digital collage illustrations... Adults may feel nostalgia over seasons past-and young readers will be introduced to the enticing lure of autumn and the joys of sharing it with someone they love."― Kirkus
