Pumpkin Jack

Fall is my absolute FAVORITE time of the year (well maybe, winter is a close second) but anyway, today I want to share a great fall/Halloween book with you! 

Have you read Pumpkin Jack by Will Hubbell? This book was published in 2000, but is new to me. There are so many things I love about this book… the illustrations, the descriptive language, the science included in the book, but best of all is the sweet story.

The main character in this story is Tim, a little boy who has carved a jack-o-lantern and named him Jack. The story follows Jack throughout the next year.

This book would work well during a life cycles study, but also during the fall season. I have created a FREE book companion for you to use with this story if you would like! You can grab the freebie here:

 

I hope this is something you will find valuable and can use with your class!
