5.0 out of 5 stars Warm and satisfying just like soup., July 8, 2003

This review is from: Pumpkin Soup (Hardcover)

There is something so warm, satisfying and homey about this book. The three animals live happily together in their warm and cozy house eating their regular supper of pumpkin soup. Each member of this little family has his own role in the soup making process; however, happiness cannot last forever and one morning the duck decides he wants to trade parts! HE wants to be the one stirring the soup... This wish causes chaos in the little house and the duck decides to leave....
I am sure you can guess the ending, but nevertheless this is a rich, beautiful and lovable story which has several surprises along the way.
The paintings are beautiful and colorful (I especially love the pumpkin garden) and my son always ends the reading with his wish "please make me a pumpkin soup"...

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely, utterly, charming!, September 29, 2005

This review is from: Pumpkin Soup (Paperback)

As a children's librarian I often read this book aloud to "my kids" and it was a hit every single time. It's all about cooperation and learning to accept your friends despite all their faults and foibles. I heartily recommend it for one of those chilly fall days--serve soup and crackers as a snack.

This review is from: Pumpkin Soup (Paperback)

Grandmum was a children's librarian and always finds the great books for my daughter.

This is a sweet little book that has become my daughters favorite(she is 4). She found it funny that a cat, a squirrel and a duck would live together, play music, and make soup.

Each has a part to their events as each plays a certain instrument, and each has a certain part to the making of the soup.

Chaos happens when the duck decides he wants to try something different.

It of course has a happy ending.

The art is very good as my daughter likes looking at it.

A good book for bed time reading!
