Pomme and the Pumpkins by Admar Kwant

But is Pomme the only one looking after her growing pumpkins? Filled with glowing pastel illustrations, this beautiful book tells the story of how vegetables grow and shares a message of kindness, as Pomme discovers a special new friend has been helping to care for the garden through the seasons. Pomme and the Pumpkins is a heart-warming new picture book by Admar Kwant, creator of Sam and the Gnome's Red Hat and the beloved Pip the Gnome board book series.

'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.'
