A girl takes a journey through the good and not-so-good seasons in life.

A little girl starts her day feeling gray and alone, with everyone around her oblivious to her mood. On her way home from school, she meets a small dog in need of help, and the interaction turns her world a little brighter. Through their newfound friendship, she learns that deep bonds have the power to transform feelings and bring a vital sense of belonging. This debut picture book from Brazilian author-illustrator Bianca Pozzi creates a poignant and rich portrayal of childhood emotions with delicate text, gentle illustrations, and resounding empathy.

Lately, a little girl has been feeling dull and gray, like it's always raining on her. Then one day, she meets a dog and it brings the sun back into her life, like a spring or summer day. She still has those sad days, but most of them are sunny with new beginnings and friendship.

THE SEASONS WITHIN ME is a heart-warming tale about a little girl finding her best friend in a stray dog. The dog brightens her life and shows how pets can be good for our mental health. I love how the different seasons symbolize her emotions and how she can go from a summer's day to a winter's eve. The illustrations are simple and cute with just enough detail to catch your eye.


Final Verdict: I would recommend this to children who either have a lot of emotions or have trouble explaining how they feel. This introduces a different way to discuss feelings where children may be able to interpret it easier.
