Curiosity and coziness shine in this modern picture book about the pumpkin life cycle.

A picture book full of heart and hominess, The Pumpkin Seed's Secret reveals the life cycle of a pumpkin with clever and cozy rhyme. With each page turn, the pumpkin becomes something new - it's a seed, a flower, a house, a face, and more! Extensive back matter on pumpkin life cycle stages, other fun pumpkin facts, and a recipe are included. A perfect book for home and school libraries!

A pumpkin is a seed. A plain little seed with a secret inside, A pocket, a pip with a new life to hide. To hide and to hold As springtime unfolds, A pumpkin begins as a seed. A pumpkin is a sprout. A curious sprout with one leaf and then two, A budding, a nudging, a slow peekaboo. Happy for rain And sunshine again, A pumpkin pops out as a sprout.
