Folk music is more than an idealized reminder of a simper past. It reveals a great deal about present-day understandings of community and belonging. It celebrates the shared traditions that define a group or nation. In America, folk music--from African American spirituals to English ballads and protest songs--renders the imagined community more tangible and comprises a critical component of our diverse national heritage.

The seasons are for celebrating! And these lively board books do just that while coaxing toddlers out-of-doors to explore the possibilities. Simple activities, such as mixing a mud pie or swooshing a snow angel, offer a tangible introduction to words, weather, and the five senses, as well as the many ways to play in the winter, spring, summer, and fall!

What Can You Do in the Sun? is one of four board books that include: What Can You Do in the Rain?, What Can You Do in the Snow? and What Can You Do in the Wind? for year-round fun.
