Publisher Description

Kids will love this playful story of of a unique fall friendship between a girl . . . and her squash!

On a trip to the farmers' market with her parents, Sophie chooses a squash, but instead of letting her mom cook it, she names it Bernice. From then on, Sophie brings Bernice everywhere, despite her parents' gentle warnings that Bernice will begin to rot. As winter nears, Sophie does start to notice changes.... What's a girl to do when the squash she loves is in trouble?

The recipient of four starred reviews, an Ezra Jack Keats New Writer Honor, and a Charlotte Zolotow Honor, Sophie's Squash will be a fresh addition to any collection of autumn books.

    Sweet story!

    We loved this! I have a 3 yr old and a 5 yr old (both boys) and we read this at bedtime one night while traveling. The length was perfect... The illustrations were wonderful... And it's such a perfect children's story I wish I could find a dozen more just like it!
