Silly Lilly and The Four Seasons was a book that provided a connection between words and images. The words just so happened to be the four seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter! Lilly described what she liked to do in each season and even dressed the part. It was cute and informational at the same time.

Ages 1-4. 'Silly Lilly and the Four Seasons' is a graphic novel written for beginning readers. Each page contains only one or two panels, with word bubbles containing one sentence. The book follows Lilly through each season, beginning and ending with spring, doing some season-specific activity such as apple-picking in the fall. This picture book is a nice introduction to the comic/graphic novel genre. Recommended for beginning reader collections.

"Silly Lilly and the Four Seasons" by Agnes Rosenstiehl is the English translation of a popular French easy-reader. Available online as a Toon Book, children can get help with reading by opting to have the book read aloud to them and can "flip" through the pages at their own pace. Moreover, it's available in a couple different languages, including the original French, making it a great tool for ESL students and children learning a foreign language. Lilly is a quirky little girl who has fun playing outdoors no matter what season it is. This story follows Lilly as she goes through a whole year of seasons, each involving its own special activity. Lilly's companion is her Teddy Bear and, although he isn't the most active character, he facial expression lets readers in on what he's thinking at any given moment. (When Lilly pelts him with snowballs in the winter story, he is not amused.) The stories are simple, fun and easy to follow, and the illustrations have little subtle details that will capture readers attention. The book is divided into little stories, one for each season, which might be an ideal format for the child who has trouble focusing. However, each story ends a little too abruptly, as does the book itself, and this throws off the pacing.

This time around I'm reviewing the first three books published in this series of graphic novels for emergent readers. The struggling reader (8yo) enjoyed the others so much we went out and bought the first three. So he has now read the entire line of Toon Books and anxiously awaits the publication of the next set.They are around 30-odd pages each and first published April 2008.This is the easiest of the first three books. Simple words, large letters and divided into five parts as Lilly enjoys each season of the year, starting and ending with Spring. My struggling reader had no problems reading this book at all. The illustrations are really cute too!Highly recommend any one of the 8 books in this series published so far.

This picture book has many qualities of a graphic novel, such as action boxes and speech bubbles, but the format is simple enough to be followed by very young readers. Silly Lilly goes through all the seasons talking about her favorite things to do during each one. The illustrations are simple and feature the primary colors in a vintage style; they are eye-cathcing and quite beautiful. Great book for children learning about the four seasons, especially because there is an online "Read to Me" option so kids can try it on their own.
