If you want to search other libraries, check out the library catalog https://sails.ent.sirsi.net/client/en_US/bwater/? and log in with your library card number (no spaces) and pin (normally last four digits of your phone number)

Leif and the fall / by Allison Sweet Grant
"Leif is a leaf. A worried leaf. It is autumn, and Leif is afraid to fall. "All leaves fall in the fall," say the other leaves. But Leif is determined to find a different way down, and with his friend Laurel, he uses the resources around him to create a net, a kite, a parachute in hopes of softening his landing. The clock is ticking, the wind is blowing. What will happen when a gust of wind pulls Leif from his branch?"
