New Fall Books For Your Children

Fall is almost here! That means a new line of books from my favorite children's book publisher, Dawn Publications. While my son is going off to first grade, I get to spend my days with my daughters at home. One of their favorite things to do is read, which is why we are so excited to share with you two of our new favorites!

The Dandelion Seed's Big Dream by Joseph Anthony is such a beautiful book. Not only are the illustrations so detailed and intricate, but the story of the dandelion seed is full of the beautiful themes of courage, patience, and perseverance. We always love that the stories from Dawn Pub offer great information and activities in the back of the story to enhance learning!

Consider the dandelion. It lives life fully, flies with beauty, survives storms, endures darkness, never gives up. It is one of nature’s greatest success stories. Like dandelions, each of us can make the world a brighter place. The trick is to bloom right where we are.


The Prairie that Nature Built by Marybeth Lorbiecki is another fantastic choice! Nature is full of so many miracles and things to discover, and this book helps tell the story of the beautiful prairie habitat. Whether you live in the city or country, your child will love learning about how prairies grow and flourish. In the back of the book you and your children will have fun learning more. I am always amazed at how much I learn along with my children.

A wild prairie is a lively place in this rhythmic romp with munchers and crunchers above and below the grasses so thick, and fires that flare, and rains that quench—and always the prairie grows green.

Enjoy the precious time spent reading and learning with your children this fall season!
