We love children’s books and the plethora of phenomenal ones with a fall theme!
Here are some library finds we’ve been enjoying lately:
Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf by Lois Ehlert:
Miss Leyba relates to the idea of picking up plants from the garden center, then planting, caring for and growing to love them. She’s memorized this one already.
And Then Comes Halloween by Tom Brenner, illustrated by Holly Meade:
A showcase of fun fall activities, such as carving pumpkins, raking leaves, decorate yards, and making costumes, gearing up for Halloween.
Hello, Harvest Moon by Ralph Fletcher, illustrated by Kate Kiesler:
Beautiful imagery and verse, nevertheless I’d personally recommend this book for older children; our toddler has little patience for it unless she’s really in a reading mood. We’ll try again next year!
In November by Cynthia Rylant, illustrated by Jill Kastner:
Beautiful pictures, sound science, and the girls especially enjoy it. David thinks it’s a boring story, but don’t tell Miss Leyba!
Frog and Toad All Year by Arnold Lobel:
A story for all seasons! My favorite Frog and Toad book, it’s quirky, fun and a very, very sweet collection of stories about best friends!
I am so happy to see you blogging regularly again m’dear :)
I might need to check some of these books out of the local library; they look so good!
Children’s books are the best! Beautiful illustrations!
I love Frog & Toad All Year! Such great books, and so hard to believe it’s still so warm where you are when autumn has really come around to the east coast. (Speaking of fall, is there a place on your site where you share how you made your applesauce? The apples around here are spectacular and I really want to try it!)
