Leaf Man is a great book. It gets kids to look at everyday things, like leaves, in new and novel ways. The pictures in this book are amazing! There are cows, roosters, fish, turtles, birds, butterflies and other animals all made of leaves. So creative!
In our Bunny Rabbit class we read the story and examined the pictures. We talked about how the author made the art in the book. To make a connection between the art in the book and our own artistic talents, we made our own version of Leaf Man. The children gathered a box full of leaves from the playground. They chose leaves to glue together to create their own leaf people or animals.
