BOOK TALK: PUMPKIN BABY by Jane Yolen

July 1, 2009 Uncategorized No Comments

From Jane: In PUMPKIN BABY a child mistakes adults joking about a new baby as coming from a pumpkin garden or a cabbage patch or being delivered by a stork as real. She wonders if she could love a pumpkin baby or a cabbage baby or a stork baby. And then her baby brother is born and all is revealed.
