Leaf Man By: Lois Ehlert
Ages: Toddlers through First Grade
This beautiful book is a wonderful way to bring in the fall season. The illustrations and colors are a perfect expression of autumn. This story is about the Leaf Man and the places that the wind takes him. Children will love looking at the pictures and finding what is hidden. The child can read the repetitive text along with the reader. It also gives the reader the opportunity to present directions such as north, south, etc. Most importantly, this book is just fun.
