A group of animal friends are having fun walking in the woods catching falling leaves for luck. This is not as easy as it seems. As Kay explains, leaves have got “minds of their own!” Nim says “you’ve got to out-think them.” Nim is an attractive, enthusiastic character that many children will identify with. He is determined to exceed his personal best of catching five leaves. The quest results in a variety of mishaps, and Nim appreciates the value of friendship. Delightful illustrations depict the friends and their woodland setting. A gentle book that recreates the spirit and feel of autumn. Ideal for children aged 4 – 6.
