This is a treasury of things to read and things to do in each month of the year from bestselling author and illustrator Shirley Hughes, and the stories and poems include her popular characters Alfie and Annie Rose. There are ideas for activities no matter the weather such as, for September, making paper dolls, drawing, skipping, hopscotch, blackberrying and collecting seeds. The suggested age range is 5-7, but the book is ideal for an adult to share with a younger child.
