Big Pumpkin, Erica Silverman

A witch’s oversized pumpkin sets the Halloween problem in motion: it must come off the vine before it can become pie. A ghost, vampire, and mummy each try to move it without success, until a bat arrives with an idea. The story’s central contrast is between the pumpkin’s enormous size and the small creature who may be able to solve the challenge. Its spooky cast and Halloween setting frame a simple tale about cooperation and finding another way forward, presented in a refreshed edition.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 looking for a Halloween-themed story.
  • Young readers who enjoy witches, ghosts, vampires, mummies, and bats.
  • Families seeking a picture-book tale about solving a shared problem.

Book overview

A series of spooky creatures attempt to move a giant pumpkin--only for the smallest of them to succeed--in this not-so-scary Halloween classic now available in a refreshed edition.

The witch has grown the biggest pumpkin ever, and now she wants to make herself a pumpkin pie for Halloween. But the pumpkin is so big she can't get it off the vine. It's so big the ghost can't move it either. Neither can the vampire, nor the mummy.

It looks as if there'll be no pumpkin pie for Halloween, until along comes the bat with an idea to save the day. How can the tiny bat succeed where bigger and strong spooky creatures have failed? You'd be surprised!
