A little girl plants seeds in the spring and visits them every day, telling them that one day they will become jack-o'-lanterns. She watches them grow from tiny sprouts into pumpkins. But one little pumpkin is different. While the others grow big and orange, he just keeps getting greener. Then, one summer day, he is picked too soon. What if he isn't a pumpkin at all?
Choppy offers a delightful twist on Halloween traditions. Why wait until October when you can celebrate "Summerween" with a watermelon jack-o'-lantern? The illustrations are bright and cheerful.
