(4) K-3 Illustrated by Roberta Baird. In a Halloween-themed takeoff on the classic tale, the Pumpkin Pie Man is pursued by witches, cats, Dracula, ghosts, werewolves, and skate-boarding trick-or-treaters before eventually being devoured by everyone at a Halloween party. Accompanied by jovial illustrations, the story is entertaining if spiced with too many adjectives and exclamation points. Includes a pie recipe and curriculum-related activities.
