Picking the Perfect Pumpkin

Every year, when fall rolls around, kids start thinking about two things–their Halloween costumes and the perfect pumpkin for a jack-o-lantern. In towns and cities across America families visit pumpkin patches to select the perfect orange squashes to line their doorsteps carved or decorated with scary faces, funny expressions, and artistic images. This fun illustrated children’s poem shares the excitement and decisions that a child experiences during this annual tradition.
