What is Autumn about?

Autumn has arrived in Bustletown. Leaves swirl through the streets, birds fly south and children return to school. Across the town, farmers prepare their fields, market stalls fill with seasonal produce and a broken water main causes unexpected chaos. Readers can follow familiar characters, spot pumpkins, and discover new details in every bustling scene. From homes and parks to farms and shops, the town’s autumn story ends with a joyful harvest celebration glowing with paper lanterns.
