Happy Wednesday!!!!

How is your week going?   It is a rainy day here where I live.  A great day to get a cup of hot tea and read a good book.  Also, October is here.  So fall weather and fall foliage will be coming.  I think this is my favorite time of the year.  The beautiful leaves and the chilly weather.  It is fall y'all!!!!! So I would like to share another great Scarecrow book with you.

Scarecrow
by 
Cynthia Rylant

This is a great story about a scarecrow.  Cynthia Rylant has written over 60 books for young people.  She is a great children's writer.  I have read several of her books to my former students and they loved them.    
In this book the author tells the story of a scarecrow and how  everything that makes him a scarecrow is borrowed.  She tells what he is made of and how he stands tall in the fields to watch over the crops.  She also tells about the animals that come to visit him and live in his clothes. The scarecrow's life is all his own. A scarecrow is gentle and usually has kind eyes.
This is a really lovely story about a scarecrow with beautiful illustrations by Lauren Stringer.  It is a great book about a scarecrow that young children will enjoy.  So check it out at your nearby library.  
I hope you have a made a scarecrow with your children or grandchildren by now but if not this would be a great book to do that with.  So enjoy and check out the scarecrows in your neighborhood.
Happy Reading!!!!

 See you again Friday but until then Happy Reading!!!
