Where'd All Those Colored Leaves Come From?

This is a great book about leaves which is fun to read and it actually tells where those colored leaves come from? It is great to include the book with research into real leaves. Nice for ESOL students studying biology and seeing leaves change for the first time if they come from a hot country. I liked this book a lot.

Memories of an autumn childhood

This lovely lyrical writing captures an innocent childhood playing in the falling autumn leaves.Wonderful descriptions of various leaves.....maple,oak,etc...... The illustrations are superb!

Wonderfully Illustrated - Lovely to Read

Once again, Leslie Evans provides stellar illustrations to accompany a writer's text. This book will inspire your little leaf jumper to collect and compare leaves, perhaps write their own story, and may inspire budding artists to try their hand at sketching their finds.
