It's Pumpkin Time!
Illustrated by:
"When is the very best time to start getting ready for Halloween? In the spring, of course, when a tiny seed can have time to grow into a big fat pumpkin. Bright, bold, painted-paper collages capture the excitement of two children as they dig the soil, plant the seed, water, weed, and wait…On a final page, six simple illustrations and brief captions give an exceptionally clear explanation of how a pumpkin seed germinates." — School Library Journal
