A squirrel is very upset when one fall day one of his leaves goes missing. He runs off to talk to bird and declares that āSomeone stole my leaf!ā Bird tries to explain about the season and how leaves fall off of treesābut squirrel isnāt hearing it. He is sure there is a leaf thief somewhere. This comical story helps kids learn about how in the fall some trees lose their leaves. The book also shows how sometimes people (or squirrels) can get worked up over nothing. Be sure to read this funny story to all the young readers who are interested in learning about autumnāor who just want to laugh at squirrelās misunderstanding about what happens to leaves.
