'Ideal for little readers who might find Halloween a little too scary as there are no spooks to be found here at all. A beautifully illustrated and colorful book that explores nature cycles, gardening, and growing your own produce through a story that can be enjoyed by all ages.'

'Gorgeously warming tale depicting the life-cycle of a pumpkin, from sowing the seeds in spring, tending them through summer, harvesting in autumn then saving the seeds all winter ready to start again. The illustrations absolutely glow with autumnal warmth, they are grainy and pastel hued, the effect is wholesome and restful.'
