Persistence and creativity can lead to amazing things, as Leif the leaf discovers in this lovely storybook from Allison Sweet Grant and Adam Grant, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Originals.
Leif is a leaf. A worried leaf. It is autumn, and Leif is afraid to fall. All leaves fall in the fall, say the other leaves. But Leif is determined to find a different way down, and with his friend Laurel, he uses the resources around him to create a net, a kite, a parachute in hopes of softening his landing. The clock is ticking, the wind is blowing. What will happen when a gust of wind pulls Leif from his branch?
In a culture that prizes achievement, kids are often afraid to fail--failing to realize that some of the very ideas that don't work are steps along the path to ones that will.

doorstep on halloween night while her mother hands out shiny red
apples and she and her father go trick-or-treating with the
neighborhood ghosts and goblins.
Bold, autumn-colored paintings and a simple but lively story
capture a little girl's joy and satisfaction as she shares in the
excitement of the fall season.
