"The secret of good teaching is to regard the child's intelligence as a fertile field in which seeds may be sown, to grow under the heat of flaming imagination."

Feature Friday

It's hard to believe fall is here. The signs are in the air - football games, cooler temperatures, and Halloween and Thanksgiving displays in stores. So I thought I would feature a couple of "fall" books. Go to your library and check them out!


Fall Leaves Fall!
Zoe Hall

Watching the leaves fall to the ground, two children try to catch them, then stomp on them, kick them, collect them, compare their shapes, rake them into a pile, and jump into it. Brightly illustrated and infectiously cheery.




We're Going On A Leaf Hunt
Steve Metzger

There are lots of beautiful fall leaves to find! Three friends have a big adventure hiking over a mountain and through a forest to collect leaves of all kinds and colors. What will they do with all their leaves at the end of the story? Jump and play in them, of course! With easy rhyming text and fun sound effects, children will delight in this rollicking autumn story.
