For: fall fans; readers looking for a sweet book about fall traditions.

Possible red flags: Halloween and costumes.

Halloween. Autumn.

Bright, colorful pictures of a girl and her family picking apples and pumpkins.

This would be a good book for a younger audience learning to read - can also use to reinforce fall/autumn vocabulary words.

Follows a family as they choose a pumpkin at a farm and later carve it for Halloween.

This was by far the least liked book I read this morning. It's small (physically) with minimal pictures and really meandering story for something with so few words. Then it just sort of ends. Not reading this one again.

10/20/14 - ETA I've talked this one over with co-workers and they explained some better ways to present this book, but honestly for a story time aimed at 18-36 month-old kids it's just not worth the effort.

For readers 2-3 years old. Very simple. I did like the smears of color in the artwork. It was an ok story. It does evoke the fall.

The kids weren't too crazy about the story either. The niece gave it one star for being for babies and the nephew who I read it too separately gave it 2 stars.
