This translation of Pumpkins effectively presents the cultivation, uses, and legends about pumpkins to a Spanish-speaking audience. Because of the link between pumpkins and Latino culture, the pumpkin history and lore presented may be especially interesting to readers. The book also includes recipes and pumpkin facts, as well as how to say pumpkin in twelve languages. Reading list, websites.
