Oak Leaf: A Picture Book - Hardcover

by John Sandford (Author)

Award-winning author/illustrator John Sandford's Oak Leaf is an artistic picture book about an autumn leaf's journey that beautifully evokes the season.

A lone autumn leaf falls and flies away on a breeze. It travels up and over the world and down again--where it finally lands on the page of a little girl's open book and becomes a keepsake.

"Written with a quiet poeticism." --Kirkus Reviews
