Book Review: "Fall Ball" by Peter McCarty

I picked up this book off of our "New Books" shelf for a few reasons.  One, I love Peter McCarty's simplistic inky illustrations.  Two, its title is a pun (need I say more?).  Three, my favorite season is FALL and it's here!

This book makes me want to put on a cozy sweater and make hot cider over the stove.  It is sweet and simple, a story of changing seasons and playing in the leaves outside.  The sun goes down early, but that won't spoil the children's playtime, because there's pie, pajamas, and warm blankets at home.  I think that this would be a great bedtime story.  In fact I think I read it way too early in the day, because now I've got snuggling on my brain.
