Pip’s Autumn Walk
By
Karen Coates
It is October. Pip and his cousin stood on the bridge, looking
at the stream, and the flowers that had started to lose their
petals.
Pip could hear the wind blowing the branches of the
trees. Under his feet the fallen leaves made a crunching
noise as he walked.
What colour
leaves can
Pip see?
Just then Pip heard a ‘plop!’ It was a conker falling from a
chestnut tree.
As Pip walked, he noticed some very large leaves against
a wall. Over the last few weeks they had changed colour
from green to red and orange.
Pip saw some bushes with tiny purple leaves. When he looked
carefully he saw lots of red berries too.
Who would eat
these berries?
Remember you
must never eat
them.
Above his head Pip could see a grey squirrel eating an
acorn from an oak tree.
There were so many different changes in plants and
trees for Pip to look at. He thought it would be lovely to
paint what he could see.
He could write a poem about the colours, sizes and
shapes of all the leaves.
After a while Pip’s walk took him to the edge of a lake.
He could see the reflection of the leaves in the water.
All the little ducks started to swim near him, looking for
.
food
Luckily Pip had brought some bread to give to the birds. Just
then a beautiful white swan swam up to the edge of the
lake. Pip could see his wings and his orange beak.
It was 5 0’clock. It would be getting dark soon. Pip’s little legs were
tired after all the walking, so he had a ride on his cousin’s back.
Pip decided he really liked Autumn. What do you think?
Which months are
in the season of
autumn?
