Who's Ready for Fall?

#porcupine'spie

We have a few leaves thinking about turning here in northeastern Oklahoma.  As fall edges nearer, our thoughts begin to drift toward the tastes of the season.

Porcupine’s Pie by Laura Renauld is the perfect fall book to read to PreK to third graders.  Fall Feast Day has come, and Porcupine is excited to make her famous Cranberry Pie.  She must walk to the river to wash the cranberries, so she can make her pie. Along the way she meets three different friends, who are each missing an ingredient to make their own special dish.

 

Porcupine displays the book’s theme of friendship as she generously offers her friends the needed items from her own home.  By the time she gets back home, however, she finds she is missing the key ingredient to her special recipe.  Because her friends return her kindness, Porcupine can make a Festive Friendship Pie.  The author even includes the recipe for the pie.  I plan to try it out as it sounds delicious!
