My review:
Did you know that pumpkins are 90% water and that a vine can grown up to 30 feet long? Well, I didn't either. This is just a couple of the facts written on the inside cover of this cute counting book.
A class takes a field trip to a pumpkin patch. Along the way, they count down from twenty. Items in the countdown are the number of kids on the bus, the number of things they guess they will see on the farm, and the number of animals in the petting zoo. Of course, there is a whole bunch more to count like the different kinds of pumpkins and a load of trivia about pumpkin growing. At the end of the book was a rhyming song. Of course, you will have to read the book to find out what it is. I can say, it is a familiar tune.As I have read and reviewed many of this author's books, I also enjoyed this one. The whole book was done in rhyme which made it appealing. Another things I liked about the book was the students were all diverse characters, including their teacher, Ms. Blue. Each had colorful names and clothing too. It does help that Fall is my favorite time of year and I like pumpkin patches. *wink*
I loved this book as a whole and is quite different from usual counting books. I give this book 5 pumpkins.
