The Leaf Thief: (The Perfect Fall Book for Children and Toddlers)

🐿️🍁 I don’t want to include too many photos and deny you the joy I felt first seeing it. The publisher obviously knew they had something truly special in hand. (NYT Kids Bestseller) They put a great deal into the quality of the production. First of all hadn’t realized it was this big—about 12 X11. The cover coloring truly pops and they have further heightened the scene by over painting some of the oak leaves with this perfect copper metallic wash. The story is exactly what I wanted— opening a young child to the joys of the changing seasons while using that to help little tikes to understand their changing emotions. The illustrations and depth of color are spectacular and yet not too complicated for the target age. Already ordered another for our Village library. Think of what fun it will be to take a blanket outside maybe with a picnic lunch and perhaps read it there for the first time together. Enjoy!

This book is seriously so cute. I'm a big fan because it is not based around a holiday, but a season. And the graphics are just too cute! Although it's a fairly quick read it's very educational, and we as parents enjoy reading it to our toddler. I appreciate that it is STEAM focused!

This book was very nicely illustrated and offered a story about a little squirrel who learned that it wasn't a thief who took his leaf, but the fact that Autumn is what causes the leaves to disappear. It seems a simple lesson but younger children can enjoy this book when a parent reads to them and they become aware a bit more or the world around them and how it changes from one season to the next. Good Book!

I like at the end of the book they talk about facts about the wind

Cutest book ever my son loves it

A pretty simple book, with a simple theme. Definitely for younger readers.

My 4 year old granddaughter and 3 year grandson just love this sweet story!!! I have order 2 more books in this series.

This book is SO CUTE! We read the squirrel bit fast and chittery, and the other animals slower/normal. The kiddos LOVE it!
