“Apples and pumpkins” by Anne Rockwell and pictures by Lizzy Rockwell

“A young girl spends a glorious fall day picking apples and searching for the perfect pumpkin in this refreshed classic.

“When red and yellow leaves are on the trees,” a little girl goes with her parents to a farm where they pick apples and choose “the best pumpkin of them all.” Back home, she helps to carve a grinning jack-o'-lantern face on the big orange pumpkin, which guards their doorstep on Halloween night while her mother hands out shiny red apples and she and her father de ella go trick-or-treating with the neighborhood ghosts and goblins.”
