You remember the little song from grade school about the five little pumpkins! This absolutely charming book uses the lyrics of that Halloween song and combines them with full double page illustrations in bright water-colors. The fun and excitement of trick or treat night is captured so well in this book. Join the neighborhood witches, devils, ghosts and a cute black cat on a visit to the skeleton's haunted house! The five little jack-o-lanterns roll along for some good high-spirited fun with nothing scary that might trouble little ones. Make some great memories when you share this book with children. Happy Halloween!

I'm a music teacher in Cincinnati and this is such a cute book; one of my traditional favorites for Halloween. My Pre-Kindergarten through Kindergarten students love this tale and I've used it each and every year.

Add this to your library!

I love this book. I read it to my preschoolers all month before Halloween and they never tire of it. The illustrations are just beautiful and very enjoyable for the children. The finger play rhyme in the book is very familiar to most of the children and they like to read along. They also enjoy voting for their favorite of the 5 little pumpkins. Very well done.

We originally checked this out from the library and my 18mth old son LOVED it. So we bought it for him and its still one of his favorite books.

I had the pleasure of taking a class with this talented writer/illustrator and just love this clever version of this Halloween classic. Her pictures are always so bright and colorful and geared to the child's eye. My grandchildren love this book no matter how many times I read it to them.
