This is a simple fall read that would help teach kids their shapes, I like that there are little learning activities in the back

This is a nice book about preparing for Halloween by picking out a pumpkin and getting it ready to be carved as a jack-o-lantern. Young readers will recognize differences and similarities to their own families' methods of choosing a perfect pumpkin, and will laugh at the spots of humor that dapple the story.

Solid reader; I especially like the picture clues about what Mom is doing with her pumpkin. Great for making predictions.
