Think About It Thursday - Fall Reads for Kids

It's still pretty warm here! But Fall is one of my favorite seasons...crisp but sunny days, sweaters and boots, football games, beautiful colors, pumpkin anything!! So, I'm willing Fall into existence today with some apple cider candles and a Pumpkin Spiced Latte. I also started getting out our Fall decorations and children's books and thought I'd share a few of our favorite reads for this time of year. Hopefully you'll find a new book or two to add to your story time reading this season! -Erin


 Awesome Autumn by Bruce Goldstone // Full of bright pictures introducing the events that happen each fall - harvest, changing leaves and migrations.

Bear Has A Story to Tell by Philip C. Snead // Fun story about woodland animals prepping for winter as Bear is getting sleepy.
Fall Mixed Up by Bob Raczka // Kids will get a kick figuring out all the mismatched pairs in this fun and funny book! "Bears gather nuts. Geese hibernate. Squirrels fly south."

Autumn: An Alphabet Acrostic by Steven Schnur // An engaging introduction to poetry, beautiful pictures and a run through the alphabet and Fall season all in one!

Sydney Paige: Miss School, Miss Out // Kids learn the valuable lesson of school attendance in this feel good book.
By the Light of the Harvest Moon by Harriett Ziefert // rich illustrations tell the story of bobbing for apples, stacking pumpkins and dancing leaves perfect for snuggle time before bed!
Owl Babies by Martin Waddell // one of my all time favorites! Three baby owls snuggle together and stay calm when Mom goes out at night. I love the illustrations and the comforting message that Moms always come back.

What are some of your favorite Fall books?
Do you have a special story time ritual in your home?
