The Itsy Bitsy Pumpkin by Sonali Fry -- ADVISABLE

Fry, Sonali The Itsy Bitsy Pumpkin, illustrated by Sanja Rescek. Little Simon, 2014. $5.99. Content: G.

Using the tune of "The Itsy Bitsy Spider," this board book tells the story of a little pumpkin who goes on an adventure but becomes lost. Luckily he finds a helpful witch and is finally reunited with his family.

The illustrations are colorful and fun, and the board book version is sturdy and perfect for little hands. Those who scare easily may be frightened by the creepy ghosts and goblins depicted in the vivid pictures, but others will likely enjoy singing these festive new lyrics to a very familiar tune.

Pre-K -- ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Caryn
