Reader reviews for Lawrence in the Fall

From the publisher

An Ezra Jack Keats Writer and Illustrator Award Honoree! This "subtly powerful story of agency and independence" (Publisher's Weekly) features beautiful illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Doug Salati.

When Lawrence Fox's teacher announces that students will be presenting things they collect at show-and-tell, Lawrence panics. All of his classmates have impressive collections: coins, combs, marbles...but Lawrence doesn't have anything to share.

Luckily, Papa knows where to find something magical: the deep, dark woods. Lawrence is scared at first, but as he grows more comfortable, he starts to recognize the uniqueness of the forest and its creatures. Here, amid the towering trees and their array of colorful leaves, Lawrence just may find a splendid, one-of-a-kind collection of his own.

With gentle storytelling by Matthew Farina and sensitively rendered illustrations by Doug Salati, this heartfelt story celebrates individuality and the power of nature to inspire us.
