"Leaf Jumpers"
by Carole Gerber and illustrated by Leslie Evans, is a sweet rhyming book about fall leaves. Take a romp through a fresh fall day with two kids and their dog as they collect and rake up vivid autumn leaves falling all around them. The book cleverly identifies various leaves through whimsical rhymes and beautifully illustrated pictures. The Ginkgo, Sugar Maple and Birch leaves are among the fall flora dancing about. The book culminates with a follow-up page that easily explains the phenomenon of the changing fall leaves helping you answer the obviously tough scientific question your junior botanist is sure to ask. A quick, fun read to celebrate the season.
