The Best Sukkot Pumpkin Ever

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Colleen Madden. As Micah helps his synagogue pick pumpkins for a soup kitchen, he's also on the lookout for a perfect one to bring home to decorate his family's sukkah. A truck full of pumpkins seems an odd donation, but the story's messages about generosity, selflessness, and pumpkins' life cycle are clear. The genial illustrations show nature scenes, friends and family, and Micah's imaginings.
