Summary: short and simple, includes Halloween
Comment: This is a very simple book about a caucasion family consisting of a daughter and mother and father who goes on an outing to pick apples and pumpkins in the fall. After the family picks out their pumpkin and apples they go home to make a jack-o-lantern. In the end the girl goes trick or treating with other children. Trick or treaters are dressed as a witch, devil, pirate, ghost, queen, and a monster.
The illustrations are softly done in muted colors of autumn tones. The text is very simple and short, perhaps this would be suitable for beginning readers as well...
Rating: 5
Summary: great book for classroom
Comment: This book is a great book to use with a unit on fall. You can teach the 1st part of the book in the 1st two weeks of a 4 week unit and then teach the 2nd part of the book for the last two weeks of the unit. I have used this book to teach about apples and pumpkins to a two year old class and I will using it again to teach a 4 year old class. Be creative. The children can learn the names of the characters. You can have a picnic lunch in your classroom, just like the characters in the book, do.
You can make applesauce, learn the difference between colors of apples. Have an "apple toss" game or go on a apple hunt, make jack o lanterns. It's a great book to use for fall that doesn't use pumpkins strictly for halloween.

Summary: Picking Apples and Pumpkins
Comment: I have read this book many times to all of my Grandchildren. They love it! The photography is wonderful as well as the story. I think it is something that children relate to well and the "fun" of a family outing in the fall has an enchantment for all young readers as well as smaller children that do not read yet. Fall presents such a warm glow of color and the onset of holidays..........it is a magical time of year filled with fun,tantilizing aromas from recently harvested fruits and excitement in anticipation of carving pumpkins for Halloween. This book definately gets a five star rating from me!
