Summary: Beautiful story that captures hearts
Comment: I read this story to my grade five class and they loved it. The pictures are inspiring and the story is simply beautiful. We focused on the "gift" that Clee gave to the pumpkins. She was so selfless in her giving the quilt patches to save the pumpkin garden. My students certainly learned a good lesson about what a gift can trully be.

Summary: The Blankie vs. Dad's Pumpkins
Comment: If your children still have a beloved blanket, they may find this story has a less than happy ending. Whether or not the quilt in the story is a gift from the garden or cosmos, cutting it up to protect pumpkins from frost seems rather cruel. Even if the little girl in the story couldn't bring it to kindergarten, she could've been comforted by it when she came home. Despite the rich colors and writing, I can't imagine any kindergartener willingly sacrificing such a wonderful lovey. Most would've been in hysterics to see such a thing cut apart before their eyes, just to protect vegetables. To have twelve jack-o-lanterns in return seems a pretty poor return on a very emotional investment.
Rating: 5
Summary: A precious story of generosity, caring, family togetherness.
Comment: I listened to this book being read to a first grade class by their teacher. I plan to attain my own copy to save for my grandchildren. It's a great story for families with children who may have had a special "blankie" they loved. It's also an example of great family relations and a nice non-scary Halloween story. I loved it!
