Fall Book List for Kids!

Fall Book List 

for kids

The first day of Autumn, already? It's hit right on time here in Ohio! 92F yesterday, and 70F today. Sounds about right. Honestly, I'm always one that desperately clings to every last scorching heat wave, and holding out for a big crazy storm. We got a fairly good downpour for about 10 minutes yesterday. And...then, nothing.

I really do enjoy Fall, I just never seem to look forward to Summer ending. All three of my daughters, on the other hand, are pulling out hoodies, decorations, and pumpkin spice latte recipes before Labor Day. It does give me a chuckle and help my mood. I crochet little pumpkins with cinnamon sticks down in them, and they are rapidly taking over our decor!

I also homeschool my youngest, so constantly having a reading list is always on the forefront.

This seems to be the time that we stockpile our books and prepare for long days of binge reading.

(No complaints from me!)

We seem to acquire books from a little bit of everywhere. We have them gifted or given, we do a ton of library trips, thrift stores, and Thriftbooks which is actually having a great sale on children and YA books. Buy any 3, and get 1 free. Plus free shipping! I've also recently found BookOutlet, and they have pretty awesome prices. 

No matter how you get your books, Autumn has such a diversity of book choices. It's a great time to incorporate learning and lessons throughout the season. There is gardening/harvesting, nature changing, animal habits and environments, books about giving, celebrating, tons full of Fall recipes to learn and share.

I feel it is a great opportunity to get children interested in reading. There are so many choices to find their interests.

We like to have a little of everything. Here is a list I've put together. Some we have read, others are going on our list.
