Illustrated by
Susan Swan.
The concept of "fall" as a description of what happens in autumn is stretched to its limit, encompassing not just what leaves and temperatures do but also what football players do (they "fall / into the end zone"), etc. Some references are clever, others are a reach, but all are gloriously depicted in mixed-media collages that capitalize on the season's colors.
