Fort-Building Time

Megan Wagner Lloyd, illustrated by Abigail Halpin

Four children spend a year playing outside and making a different fort for each season. In winter, they build with snow; later, their forts take the forms of a tent, a beach hideaway, and a tree shelter. Rhyming text moves through seasonal play, including sledding and making snowmen. Watercolor illustrations show three girls and one boy from varied racial backgrounds sharing imaginative outdoor games. Across the changing weather, the children keep finding new ways to create a snug place of their own.
