What reviewers said
"Magical moonbeams awaken a pumpkin patch to raucous Halloween-season revelry... Liveliness and good cheer abound in this frisky rhyming tale in which the perennial holiday symbols naturally take center stage. Perky couplets that read and scan very well appear on most pages and are accompanied by energetic, expressive illustrations that highlight vivid oranges, yellows, blues, purples, and greens with touches of other bright shades. Readers will delight in discovering the joyous time pumpkins have when it's Halloween."
"Spunky rhymed couplets by Masessa and luminescent cartoons by Wragg... [this] energetic caper will tickle fans of Snowmen at Night."
"Halloween-worthy chills for any time of year."
