When Autumn Falls
PreSchool-Grade 1–Simple language and colorful cut-paper illustrations are perfectly matched to provide an engaging look at an appropriately named season. The poetic text emphasizes all of the things that "fall": "The temperature falls,/bringing cooler weather./Grab your jacket or your sweater." Other spreads describe how "Leaves fall," "Ripe apples fall," and even "Football players fall." Varied seasonal activities reinforce the mood, including children bobbing for apples, selecting pumpkins, and playing in crisply hued leaves. Sure to please young readers, this title rises to the top.–Andrea Tarr, Corona Public Library, CACopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
