I really enjoyed this book, it is on the list for my favorite books. The illustrations are beyond creative, they bring out the story and seem realistic. At the bottom of each page, it provides facts and history about pumpkins.

Book description

Hoping to find pumpkins as unbelievable as "our turtle lived in the vacuum cleaner for one month and is still alive!" and as scrumptious as "gooey cheese pizza right out of the oven when I'm starving," a young boy tells how his family searched high and low for perfect pumpkins-only to find the best ones in their own backyard. An entertaining story for kids and grown-ups alike, In Search of the Perfect Pumpkin blends lively text with superb illustrations. Also features fun facts, growing tips for pumpkins, and a recipe for the perfect pumpkin pie.
