A spooky nighttime hunt for the biggest pumpkin in town results in a fright but also a great adventure and lots of fall fun. Laugh out loud at the sweet silliness and be heartened to know you might not be the only scaredy cat...er, mouse...in the pumpkin patch. The perfect read aloud Halloween.
"Even without pumpkin pie, readers will hunt down this delightful Halloween offering."

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Fans of the familiar participatory rhyme "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" will want to jump right into the fun of this comforting Halloween version. A passel of animal pals, several sporting simple trick-or-treating costumes, set off on a pumpkin hunt: "Going to find a pumpkin,/ orange and round." The sensory trek involves a squeaky gate and some ticklish grass, and then one of the pigs notes, "I see a pumpkin /and it sees me!" The spooky sight of a pumpkin-headed scarecrow sends the crew scurrying back to the safety of home, where they put a yummy plan B into play. Munsinger crafts pen, ink, and watercolor compositions with a backdrop of soft blues and purples on a moonlit night, and her animal characters' expressive faces fully capture the excitement of Wilcox's spirited Halloween expedition. Ages 2 5.
