Fall Picture Books

Fall is such a wonderful time in the classroom. I spent some time today gathering up a list of my favorite fall picture books. Today I am sharing pumpkin and monster picture books along with some blog posts I’ve previously written! You can see all of my fall book picks in one easy click HERE.

Let’s start with pumpkin books! Here are a few of the favorites we’ve read over the years:

– The Ugly Pumpkin – Pick a Pumpkin –Too Many Pumpkins

-The Very Best Pumpkin –Pumpkin Jack –How Many Seeds in a Pumpkin

–Pumpkin Soup -The Biggest Pumpkin Ever –Pumpkin Town

Now let’s throw it back to a pumpkin activity. My class was learning about proper nouns, so they created their very own pumpkin to write about. They had to use proper nouns in their writing. Find that post HERE.

Kids may be terrified of monsters under their beds, but they LOVE monster books! I’ve read so many good ones, but here are my top picks:

–If Your Monster Won’t Go To Bed – Quit Calling Me a Monster

–If I Had a Gryphon –Marilyn’s Monster – Peanut Butter and Jelly Brains

–The Monsters’ Monster –Even Monsters Need Haircuts –Monster Trouble

– I Need My Monster – Monster’s New Undies

For this monster lesson we created monster bags. We were looking for character traits to describe each monster from the story. Students sorted the character traits by character! You can see more of that HERE!

I hope you enjoy reading some of those fall picture books in your classroom!
