This September, we will be reading Leaf Man by Caldecott medal-winner, Lois Ehlert. Ride the wind with Leaf Man as he travels every which way and meets ducks, geese, cows, and more!

After the story, young learners and their caregivers will make their own Leaf Person out of colorful construction paper. You can take your Leaf Person wherever the wind blows – and it’s sure to be an adventure!
