It's Pumpkin Time!

By: Zoe Hall

Illustrated by: Shari Halpern

Age Level: 3-6

"When is the very best time to start getting ready for Halloween? In the spring, of course, when a tiny seed can have time to grow into a big fat pumpkin. Bright, bold, painted-paper collages capture the excitement of two children as they dig the soil, plant the seed, water, weed, and wait…On a final page, six simple illustrations and brief captions give an exceptionally clear explanation of how a pumpkin seed germinates." — School Library Journal

The Apple Pie Tree

By: Zoe Hall

Illustrated by: Shari Halpern

Age Level: 3-6

Two sisters describe the changes they see in the apple tree throughout the seasons from bare winter branches to fruit in the fall. A recipe for making apple pie is included with additional information about pollination. American writer Louisa May Alcott must have noticed similar seasonal changes in the trees that grew around their Massachusetts home, named Orchard House for the 40 apple trees planted there.
