For a child curious about how plants grow or looking for a gentle way to connect with the autumn season, this book is a perfect choice. It follows a little boy named Jamie who plants a single pumpkin seed. With simple text and soft, detailed illustrations, the story shows the seed sprouting, growing a vine, flowering, and finally becoming a big, round pumpkin. Jamie carves his pumpkin into a jack-o'-lantern and saves six seeds to plant again in the spring. This book beautifully captures the themes of patience, wonder, and the cyclical nature of life. It’s a quiet, nurturing story that makes the abstract concept of a life cycle feel personal and magical for a preschooler.
