It's fun to plant a garden! First the children plant seeds, then they water them. Soon the leaves and flowers start to grow, and before long, tiny pumpkins appear. After a few months they are ready to be picked. Then the children scoop out the pumpkins' insides and make pumpkin pie, pumpkin cookies, and jack-o-lanterns. The charmingly illustrated, simple, rhyming text is perfect for beginning readers-who may just feel inspired to plant pumpkin patches of their own!
