Book Description
"When red and yellow leaves are on the trees," a little girl goes with her parents to a farm where they pick apples and choose "the best pumpkin of them all." Back home, she helps to carve a grinning jack-o'-lantern face on the big orange pumpkin, which guards their doorstep on halloween night while her mother hands out shiny red apples and she and her father go trick-or-treating with the neighborhood ghosts and goblins.

Bold, autumn-colored paintings and a simple but lively story capture a little girl's joy and satisfaction as she shares in the excitement of the fall season.

Card catalog description

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Family focused simple story about the Autumn Season , September 12, 2006 Reviewer: christinemm "christinemm" (Connecticut, United States) - See all my reviews    A simple story about things that a family can do in autumn. Depicts apple picking with the family at an apple farm, pumpkin picking, and carving a jack-o-lantern. The last three pages feature trick or treating with the children dressed as: pirate, ghost, queen and a devil. This is a short story with illustrations going across both pages, bright colors, hand drawn. This book has a low word count and is for very young children, from toddlers through age five or perhaps even six. This is perfect for use by Preschool, Kindergarten teachers and homeschoolers when the teacher wants to read books about the autumn season. Of course it is also good for parents to read to children. I enjoyed that the book was family focused and about a family doing things together, versus just talking about apples and pumpkins.

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Great for fall!, November 3, 2005 Reviewer: Lori Gentry "library leader" (Chicago) - See all my reviews    I read the Big Book version of this with my primary classes, accompanied with the audio, and they really enjoyed it. It was a lot of fun just before Halloween. They liked the fall colors. It was pretty and colorful. It is not a "baby" book as it is classified, but is appropriate for kindergarten or first grade.

The illustration is beautiful and the prose is appealing to young ears.
