Watch the world transform when fall comes! In the middle of fall, it
takes only one gust of wind to turn the whole world yellow and red and
orange.
Caldecott Medalist and New York Times-bestselling author Kevin
Henkes's memorable text introduces basic concepts of language and the
unique beauty of the fall season. Laura Dronzek's expressive paintings
illuminate pumpkins, apples, falling leaves, busy squirrels, and the
transformation from colorful autumn to frosty winter.
"This exquisite picture book will inspire youngsters to get outdoors and
observe the world around them."--School Library Journal (starred
review)
In a starred review, Kirkus called In the Middle of Fall "A touching
portrait of the fall season from two superb artists."
In the Middle of Fall, Winter Is Here, When Spring Comes, and Summer
Song make for a beautiful quartet of seasonal-theme picture books to
share at home or in the classroom. Ideal for introducing the season, for
story time, and for bedtime reading.
