Fall Books for Kiddos

I am always trying to rotate our books.  Dutch is a big reader, so we go through a lot of books.  But just like I get tired of reading the same books over and over again, he gets tired of hearing the same books.  From an educational perspective, I know that when he is starting to recite the words with me, or even say them before I can read them, that he has memorized the book, and it's time to move on and incorporate some new material.  As we go through and learn about the different seasons, it's a great time to switch out some of our books.  Our favorite fall books right now are about football, the seasons, Halloween, & Thanksgiving, and here are our favorite fall books right now:
