Well friends, can you believe it’s almost October already? The leaves are starting to turn, the air is crisp and cool (where I am), and the rains have come. Autumn is in the air!
It’s a cozy time to cuddle up with your little ones and read some fun living picture books for Autumn. The stories I bring to you today are also memorable, wholesome, and thoroughly engaging.
Please comment below with your favorite picture books so that I can include them in future living picture book posts!
PS This is only my second book post – of what I hope are many more to come. I (Rebecca) will link to my past book posts down near the end to make it easier for you to find (and share) these quality children’s book titles. Thank you.
Without further ado, here is my growing list of favorite living children’s picture books for Autumn!
