Little Boo

(3) PS Illustrated by Tim Zeltner. A friendly-looking little pumpkin seed tries very hard to be scary. "You'll be scary soon enough," the wind assures it, but the seed finds that waiting is hard. Whimsical acrylic-on-plywood illustrations capture the seed's growth into a pumpkin--then a jack-o'-lantern--when it finally realizes its dream on Halloween. An enjoyable holiday read-aloud with a gentle message about patience.
