How do the changing seasons affect what time it gets dark and the type of weather we experience? How do plants and wild animals respond as the year passes by and the seasons change? From new green shoots pushing through the soil and warm sunshine in spring, to shorter days and frost and snow in winter, readers will discover how the world around them changes as the seasons change. This title is filled with critical thinking questions and ideas for activities and experiments to enable young science enthusiasts to learn about the seasons. It is supported with downloadable worksheets.
