If you are looking for a wonderful autumn book that is entertaining and educational, look no more.
Patty's pumpkin patch is wonderfully illustrated and maps out the entire life cycle of a pumpkin plant from seeds and planting to the actual growth and harvest. In addition to giving a simplified view of plant growth cycles the author cleverly introduces every letter of the alphabet and an illustration of its example on the bottom of each page. As an added treat it even includes traditons revolved around pumpkins like jack-o-latern carving and roasting pumpkin seeds.
Cheerfully written, wonderfully illustrated, entertaining and informative.

Never has autumn looked so alluring. A delightfully created watercolor, acrylic and oil pastel artistic masterpiece combined with a rhyming, alphabetical story about a pumpkin patch.

Wonderous to look at and read. Youngsters will be amused at all the tiny details from ladybugs and dragonflies to wrens and xylem leaves.

This book would be a perfect prelude to the closing of autumn or a visit to a real pumpkin patch.

This is the story of the birth and succession of the pumpkin patch as tended by Patty. The alphabet is featured here and on every page a new letter is spotlighted with in the context of the seasonal growth of the pumpkin vines. The sprouting of the pumpkins, weeding of the fields, the animals that move through the patch and the end product are all detailed in vivid drawings. Great visual for letters and word association.

This book has a charming story that goes from plowing the field and planting the seeds, to carving pumpkins and saving seeds for next year. Bright and detailed illustrations delight children and each page has a letter with a farm theme item. The best book I have found so far that follows the cycle of a pumpkin on a farm.

This is a beautiful book, so special illustarated and personnelly written. My 2 year old loves it, so does the whole family. This is a pumpkin book filled with lots of love and so is the creation of it.
