Description

About the Book

A man made of leaves blows away, traveling wherever the wind may take him. On die-cut pages.

Book Synopsis

Ride the wind and drift east with Leaf Man in this autumnal classic by Caldecott Honor-winning author-illustrator Lois Ehlert, perfect for young readers returning to school in the fall.

Fall has come, the wind is gusting, and Leaf Man is on the move. Is he drifting east, over the marsh and ducks and geese? Or is he heading west, above the orchards, prairie meadows, and spotted cows?

No one's quite sure, but this much is certain: A Leaf Man's got to go where the wind blows.

Ehlert crafts each illustration out of actual fall leaves on every spread to reveal gorgeous landscapes. This playful and whimsical book celebrates the natural world and the rich imaginative life of children.

A Delight

Festive fall fun - pleasantly surprised by the pretty scalloped pages that reveal delightful landscapes. First discovered Lois Ehlert (rest in peace) with "Feathers for Lunch." All her books are wonderful.
