Autumn Leaf

If you are looking for a story to discover autumn with the youngest, this book by Marisa Morea is a lovely choice. 🧡 Through different scenes, Autumn Leaf invites us to observe everything that changes during this season: 🌧️ the rain and wind, the leaves that fall and fill the forest with color, the mushrooms and snails, and also some of the fruits and foods typical of this time of year, such as pumpkin, persimmons, pomegranates or figs. 🌰 It also suggests small autumn activities, like playing in the forest and collecting acorns, chestnuts and dry leaves to decorate our home afterwards. 📖 It is a board book of just 10 pages that opens fully and can stand up thanks to its Velcro fastening. It is designed so little ones can look at the illustrations and gradually discover the features of this season. 🍁 I find it especially interesting for early ages, because it lets you connect reading with what children are seeing and living around them: going out to look for leaves, putting on boots when it rains, watching the colors of the trees or trying seasonal foods.
