The thing I really like about Fall is Coming is the main character, a rabbit with white fur and cool blue polka dots.

The sentences are very short and easy, which is perfect for the target group first readers.

The illustrations are nice, but nothing spectacular or memorable. Mostly the pictures are kept simple and often show just one item, a sun, a tree, etc.

The real let down is the lack of a story which makes any sense.
We see our rabbit going on a bike ride with his friend, a bird who goes by the name of Colombino (which is for young kids difficult to pronounce).
They have a rest under a tree and fall asleep. In the meantime autumn arrives, the leaves fall off and the trees feel cold. (oh well.)
Rabbit puts on a sweater (what happened to his fur?) and goes back to school and draws a sun with his coloured pencils.

I think, the funky rabbit deserves a much better story.… (plus d'informations)
