Peter Peter Picks a Pumpkin House

64 pp. | Holt | August, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8050-8706-2 $16.99
(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Susan Boase. Pumpkin-growers Peter Peter and his wife Wanda have a leaky roof to fix. Peter Peter sells their goat for a bag of "treasure," which turns out to be nothing but seeds. The seeds seem worthless--until they grow into a pumpkin enormous enough to make into a house. Simple text and attentive sketchlike illustrations flesh out the classic Mother Goose rhyme.
