A stunningly illustrated Halloween tale about a pumpkin seed who can't wait to become a scary jack-o-lantern.
The leaves fall, the wind blows, and one little pumpkin seed tries and tries to be scary, but he doesn't scare anyone . . . not the snowflakes in winter, not the bees in spring, not even the watering can!
The wind tells him to be patient--he'll be scary soon enough. But waiting is hard. Will the little seed ever be really, truly scary?
This simple story is more than a fun Halloween read--it is a heartwarming tale perfect for any child who can't wait to grow up.
