Review Quotes

"Told from the point of view of the Little Green Pumpkin, this story takes the reader on a journey of struggling to love oneself when they don't quite fit in. The Little Green Pumpkin

struggles to love her green rind because she doesn't look like the other pumpkins, and she believes the other pumpkins are beautiful and better than her because of their appearance. This is a universal struggle so many children face going into school where their classmates may not look, dress, or talk like them...In addition to the powerful message about self-love, this story is a cute, fun picture book perfect for any autumn story time." -Reviewed by Taylor Quinn for Pine Reads Review
