Review

I received this book from Goddess Fish Promotions in exchange of an honest review.

I just couldn’t resist going for a review when I saw the sign-up for this book on the Tour Organiser’s page. It looked like such a treat! Plus, while it is a bit early yet, I am slowly getting in the mood for Halloween! And what better way to get more in the mood than with a fun book about witchy business and pumpkin counting?

In this adorable book we meet with a witch and her pumpkin patch. She has 10 pumpkins and she is eagerly waiting for them to hatch. Mehsi, hatch? Pumpkins don’t hatch? Right? Well, in this one the pumpkins sure do. Each time the witch visits her pumpkin patch one pumpkin will POP, SQUELCH, BURST, and something will come out! We see werewolves pop up, ghosts, monsters, and more! I really started to look forward to seeing which one of the pumpkins would have surprise this time and see what monster/beastie pops up out of it.

Not just that, I love that you can see time pass by, this isn’t just a one evening event. Our witch has new clothes on each time (and I loved seeing them and even started looking forward to what the witch would wear this time), but the pumpkins start to look a bit less yummy/good each time.

It is definitely a fun way to teach kids counting and some fun words as well. I love that the pumpkins had numbers, that just made it a bit easier + the kids can also learn the numbers that way.

The art was so cute and fun.

I would definitely recommend this delightful picture book to all, this will be a perfect October/fall/Spooktober read. Counting, witchy business, pumpkins, and surprises!

Star rating, 4 stars

    1. Same! While I would love just a few more days of hot weather, I am also staring at fall decorations and my sweaters and think of all the hot chocolate I will be drinking, haha.
