Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

It's Fall!
It seems backwards to be writing about this book in March - but truth is I can't wait another six months to share this well-written introduction to the autumn season. Written by Minnesota's Linda Glaser, with 3-dimensional cut paper illustrations by Susan Swan, this is an excellent introduction to the changes that happen to plants and animals during fall. It is enhanced by three pages of suggested nature activities to do in the fall.
