What Do Animals Do In Fall?  The Let's Look at Fall series serves beginning readers, offering texts consisting of 75 to 100 words. The eight-book series focusing on autumn has kids look at different aspects of the season. What Do Animals Do in Fall? looks at hibernating and migrating, as well as animal survival techniques. The short sentences and appealing color photographs, many featuring children of the intended reading age, will attract the designated audience. The back matter is short, perhaps listing only one title or website, but there are suggestions for parents and teachers about ways to use the books. Solid reading for a brisk fall day.--Cooper, Ilene Copyright 2010 Booklist.  

Our Every Child Ready To Read theme is Print Motivation.  Every book you read to your child helps to develop the desire to learn how to print, and to recognize letters.  

Come join us for silly songs and crafts.
