First published in 1906, The Story of the Root Children by Sibylle von Olfers is a beloved classic among Waldorf educators and families, illustrating the rhythmic cycles of the natural seasons.
During winter the Root Children live deep underground, cared for by loving Mother Earth. When Spring arrives, the children busy themselves preparing for the new season.
In the warm Summer sunlight they play outside, in the fields and by a stream. When Autumn returns, the Root Children retire into their underground home to sleep through the cold Winter.
This board book version of the original classic features simplified language for a younger audience and sturdy cardboard pages, perfect for small fingers. The gorgeous color illustrations have been adapted to fit the new format.

Frequently Bought Together
We read this every night
I am so glad I ordered this lovely book. My toddler loves it so much that we read it every night before bed. I love how it celebrates the seasons, the simplicity of the story, and yet how detailed it can be. My toddler loves the illustrations and will ask me questions about it, which usually leads to her own story about what’s going on. I am considering buying the extended version of this book now, since we enjoy this book so much. I also love how it’s a board book because I feel like it will last a lot longer (I have a baby as well who loves books, but is still learning about being gentle to our books). Anyways - if you’re considering purchasing this, do it - it’s just such a lovely book.

Great book for tiny hands
Love this book, and I love that this is able to be given to my toddler so he can read it himself.
