I found this post on http://earlyliteracyconnection.blogspot.com/ It's a great blog about early literacy.
When the Leaf Blew In by Steve Metzger
Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf by Lois Ehlert
Leaf Season by Quintan B. Lee
The Leaves are Falling One by One by Steve Metzger
Leaves! Leaves! Leaves! by Nancy Elizabeth Wallace
Leaves, Leaves, Leaves by Melvin and Gilda Berger
Of course, there are likely many other great leaf books out there. I have merely listed are ones that I own. When looking for books consider a few things: do you want fiction or non-fiction? Children may not understand that books are about the world we live in because they get used to seeing illustrations instead of pictures. Does the book have a great rhyme? Does it have rich vocabulary? Does your child enjoy it?
Please share the names of any other great fall books. I will have more fall book lists as the weeks pass.
