About the Author
Jaqueline Farmer is the author of APPLES, PUMPKINS, and VALENTINE BE MINE, among other books for young readers. She lives in Greensboro, North Carolina.
From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 3–In a conversational style, Farmer relates facts, history, legend, and growing tips about one of the favorite fruits of fall. In addition to the de rigueur instructions on pumpkin carving (and safety) and seed toasting, the author includes the word for the berry in other languages, a brief list of pumpkin world records, and recommended readings and Web sites. The serviceable watercolor-and-pencil illustrations feature a multicultural cast of bright-eyed, slightly stiff young children; the art is surrounded by plenty of white space. More detailed than Gail Gibbons's The Pumpkin Book (Holiday, 1999) and less poetic than George Levenson's Pumpkin Circle (Tricycle, 2004), this holiday patch of pumpkin facts will find a place in collections looking for material for Halloween and harvest time.–Marge Loch-Wouters, Menasha's Public Library, WI
