Barbara Seuling, , illus. by Greg Newbold. . Harcourt/Voyager, $6 (32pp) ISBN 978-0-15-216808-7

Autumn turns to winter and forces animals to find protective shelter. "The text sets up a rhyme of simple questions on one spread, answered with the turn of the page by rhyming couplets," wrote PW. "The broad scope of softly rounded rural scenes brings soothing balm to day's end." Ages 3-7. (Oct.)
