Reach for this book when you are preparing your little one for a trip to the pumpkin patch or when they are starting to notice the changing seasons.

The story follows a group of popular fairies as they navigate a patch of varying pumpkins, modeling collaborative decision-making and patience. While ostensibly a Disney-themed fantasy, the core of the book is a concept-building exercise centered on size, shape, and texture. It is an ideal choice for toddlers and young preschoolers who are developing their vocabulary for opposites like tall and short or smooth and bumpy. Its short length and sturdy board book format make it a reliable choice for a quick, calming bedtime read during the autumn months.
