With vibrant, joyful art and a rhythmic, read-aloud text filled with the spirit of community and the thrills of the season, here is a celebration of every fun-filled step in creating the perfect jack-o'-lantern on Halloween night!"-- - Baker & Taylor

The creators of Pick a Pine Tree celebrate the fun seasonal tradition of pumpkin picking in a rhythmic story that depicts a family searching for just the right pumpkin, enjoying cider and toffee apples and carving a jack-oâ-lantern. Illustrations. - Random House, Inc.
The creators of Pick a Pine Tree are back with a joyful, energetic celebration of a Halloween tradition.
Pick a pumpkin from the patch. Tall and lean or short and fat. Vivid orange, ghostly white, or speckled green, might be just right.
Pairing a wonderfully rhythmic read-aloud text with expressive retro illustrations, author Patricia Toht and illustrator Jarvis capture all the excitement and familial feeling of a favorite holiday tradition. Readers will be happy to follow along with each step, from picking out the perfect specimen at the pumpkin patch (be sure to stop for cider and toffee apples) to carting it home, scooping out the insides, carving a scary face, and finally lighting a candle inside â savoring the familiar ritual of transforming an ordinary pumpkin into a one-of-a-kind glowing jack-oâ-lantern.
