you need sheet_name=None

dfs = pd.read_excel('filename.xlsx',sheet_name=None)

This will return a dictionary where key will be sheet_names and value will be dataframes.

you can see all the sheet names by,

dfs.keys()

to retrieve specific sheet data,

df = dfs['sheet_name']

based on the pandas read_excel documentation you can give the sheet names as a list. so you can give the sheet names like this:

sheet_names = ['sheet1','sheet2','sheet3']
df=pd.read_excel(ExcelFile,sheet_name=sheet_names)

if you give sheet_name = None It will read all the sheets.
