The Great Pumpkin!

Join the good times this family has as they take part in fall activities.  It begins by visiting a pumpkin patch and selecting their favorite squash.  Friends and family gather as the kids learn to scoop out the insides while deciding what to carve on it. Later on, the family dresses in costumes as together they go house to house getting treats.  But the most exciting thing is seeing their carved pumpkin with a light inside glowing in the night.

Children will enjoy seeing the transformation of the pumpkin, along with all the merry making the family has along the way.  Besides the pumpkin shining, this story shines, too.  That is because everything about this tale involves family, along with the fun everyone has doing things with each other.  Jarvis provided eye-catching, colorful illustrations on every page that captures all the festivity–including the glow of the many pumpkins sprinkled across the pages. This over-sized, hardbacked, 5-star book will be a favorite of children all year long.
