Fall Books for Little Ones

By Angel Lyn Nance

While the bigger kids will soon be back at school during the days doing reading of their own, introduce your little ones to some great fall reading with some of these fun books:

• Duck and Goose Find a Pumpkin by Tad Hills is a fun board book for toddlers.

• Older preschoolers will enjoy Lois Ehlert’s Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf, which is a colorful introductory science lesson on the life cycle of trees.

• Explore the entire season with a bear family in the picture book The Autumn Visitors by Karel Hays. 

• For a lively Halloween trick-or-treating story, try We’re Off to Find the Witch’s House by Richard Krieb. 

• Tony Johnston’s Ten Fat Turkeys is a rhyming countdown board book with silly illustrated turkeys. 

• Finally, prepare for Thanksgiving with Bear Says Thanks by Karma Wilson.
