Big Pumpkin (Author: Erica Silverman / Illustrator: S. D. Schindler)

Eeek!  I forgot to post about the Halloween books we read and enjoyed this year.  Now that is truly frightening!

In "Big Pumpkin," a witch has grown a ginormous pumpkin to make pumpkin pie.  But because she has grown such a big pumpkin, she has a real problem: try as she might, she can't get that pumpkin off the vine!  A fun cast of Halloween characters come by to try their hand at moving the pumpkin, too.  No one seems big or strong enough to budge that pumpkin.  But when a clever little bat has a clever little idea...well, let's just say that there is something yummy in store for them all by the end of the story.

This is a very fun one for practicing your Halloween voices.  Enjoy!
