Sixteen Runaway Pumpkins

24 pp. | McElderry | September, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-689-85090-5 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Anne-Sophie Lanquetin. When Sam, a raccoon, picks pumpkins, she doubles the number each time--first one, then two, then four, until she has sixteen. But going home, the pumpkins fall and become "the hill-rolling, bowling-ball kind." Although the slight story is energetic and the illustrations lively and humorous, only some of the sixteen pumpkins are accounted for before Sam makes pumpkin pie.
