Lance Cottonwood is the best and brightest of the leaves, but even the top students on the tree have worries. Can Lance conquer his fear of falling and just let go when the time comes for his final exam, or will he let his worries take over? In this funny and encouraging picture book, best-selling author Stef Wade (A Place for Pluto) tells an engaging story and deftly addresses social and emotional struggles many kids encounter each day...feeling anxious, wanting to be perfect, facing fears, etc. These themes combined with illustrator Jennifer Davison's delightful characters and rich autumnal colors make The Very Last Leaf a perfect book for the start of a new school year, the arrival of autumn, or any period of transition in life.

Stef Wade used to write about cardboard boxes, but thinks writing books is far more exciting. She was the co-creator and writer for the former cooking and home blog Haute Apple Pie. Stef holds a BA in advertising from Marquette University and an MBA in Integrated Marketing Communication from DePaul University. Stef is a member of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI). She currently resides in the greater Milwaukee area with her husband and three boys.

As a child, Jennifer Davison was always drawing, imagining, and creating. She began her career as a digital artist in an animation studio in Belfast, working on a variety of projects for children's TV. Jennifer's passion for illustration led her to pursue a career as a freelance illustrator, working on a number of children's books including A Very Noisy Christmas, A Very Happy Easter, and The Twelve Dancing Princesses. Jennifer lives in Northern Ireland and works in her little studio, surrounded by children's books, toys, and numerous hot cups of tea.
