Check out the beautiful Fall Picture Book, Wonderfall, for children ages 4 to 8. A great picture book to celebrate the changing of the season as the leaves begin to fall off the trees.
Wonderfall follows a single tree through the changing of the seasons. People, animals, and vehicles pass in front of the tree, celebrating holidays, playing in its leaves, and getting ready for winter. Fifteen combined words (thankful + fall = thankFALL, plentiful + fall = plentiFALL) underscore the themes and concepts of the season, while the main attraction?the beautiful tree?drops acorns, loses leaves, and provides food and a home for a pair of scurrying squirrels. Two full spreads at the back of the book offer additional information about the animals featured in the book, as well as the science behind squirrels, acorns, and saplings.
In Wonderfall by Michael Hall you will follow a single tree through the fall season, from the end of summer to winter’s first snowfall. It is a poetic journey with simple yet perfect illustrations. I have become quite a fan of Michael Hall this last year and this book is yet again another win. Even though we don’t get to see leaves change here in Florida we certainly love to read about it in storybooks.
