秋意正浓

Fall means shorter, darker days and colder, drearier weather. But it also means snuggling up under the covers with a good book, pulling your coziest sweaters and scarves out of the closet, and enjoying comforting, warming foods like soup, pumpkin pie, and apple cider.

Of course, seasons are different all over the world. When it’s monsoon season in India, it’s hot and dry in Europe and the cool season in Australia. Even in the U.S., the seasons differ from state to state. Parts of California are warm and mild all year, while New York has a hot, humid summer and a cold, snowy winter.

The northeastern U.S. is known for having especially beautiful autumns. There’s even a special name for when people go to see the leaves change colors on the trees there. It’s called leaf-peeping. Find out if Mason and Marni will be doing any

leaf-peeping this autumn, or if they plan to stay snuggled up inside instead.
