We Planted a Pumpkin by Rob Ramsden
Follow the journey of a tiny seed to a big, fat, orange pumpkin, as the two friends from WE FOUND A SEED decide to grow a pumpkin for Halloween! As the children tend to their plant throughout the seasons, we explore their emotions: enthusiasm, anxiety, joy and finally a sense of achievement. Using a simple text with poetry and repetition, the book shares with young readers the delight of working with nature, and shows the need to be patient.
