My favorite illustration is page 19 with the scared leaf hanging on for dear life. It is so expressive. I also like the underlying idea of helping others with their fears, showing them sometimes something that seems so scary isn't once you try it.

read to first graders the other day. They were finishing up their unit about fall, pumpkins and apples.
