We Planted a Pumpkin
From the Series In the Garden
Two children plant a pumpkin seed together and nurture the growing plant through the seasons. The plant flowers and a pumpkin forms, but will it change color and be ripe and ready to harvest for Halloween?
The children must be patient and respectful of their plant, but finally they get to enjoy the fruits of their labor at their Halloween party.
A rhyming and rhythmical text makes for a great read aloud.
This book is part of the In The Garden series, aiming to introduce very young children to the natural world and encourage a love of our environment.

Reviews
School Library Journal
“[T]he simplicity of two friends planting a seed and having patience to see what comes is an appropriate and pleasant theme. Steer children under six toward this fun, fall themed book.”—School Library Journal
Publishers Weekly
“Less gardening primer than accounting of a slow-moving triumph, this In the Garden series starter depicts a parent-free project in the works alongside the delayed gratification that gardening can represent, all leading up to the protagonists’ breathless delight around holiday harvest.”—Publishers Weekly
