The Lumpy, Bumpy Pumpkin — Sydney Hanson

This simple, sweet story about a pumpkin no one picked teaches children an important lesson about finding their true purpose in life.   For many families, a trip to the farm is a beloved October tradition. As thousands of wide-eyed children and their parents comb through the patch to find the perfect fall decorations for their doorsteps and homes, there are always some pumpkins that get passed by.   This is the story of one such squash—too lumpy, too bumpy, too mushy, and too yellow-green for anyone to want. As autumn gives way to winter, will The Lumpy, Bumpy Pumpkin finally find its true purpose?   This charming tale is sure to become a seasonal story-time favorite and makes a fun, fall present for your little pumpkins.
