Now I See Collection

Now I See Collection is Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen's very young picture-book sequence about noticing the seasons. The books are spare, elegant and built for toddlers and preschoolers: very little text, strong visual focus, and a simple invitation to look again at what spring, summer, autumn and winter reveal. Compared with Barnett and Klassen's more deadpan or darkly comic collaborations, this collection is much gentler and more observational. It is best for families who like quiet, beautifully made books that teach attention rather than plot.

A beautiful, very young seasonal picture-book collection about looking carefully at spring, summer, autumn and winter.
