The word 'leaves' comes from the Old English word 'leaf', which means the same thing.
The word 'leaves' in Hindi is 'पत्ते' (Patte).
The word 'leaves' in Kannada is 'ಬೊಕ್ಕಲು' (Bokkalu).
Leaves are like little green umbrellas that help trees drink sunshine! Just like in Eric Carle's colorful stories, leaves come in all shapes and sizes. Some are big and wide, while others are tiny and pointy.
When the wind blows, they dance and twirl, making a soft rustling sound. In autumn, they change colors, turning bright red, orange, and yellow, like a beautiful painting!
So next time you go outside, look up at the trees and see how many different leaves you can find. Each one is special, just like you!
