From pumpkin seed to shared pie

Molly’s pumpkin begins as a seed and grows through the stages of sprout, leaves, and fruit on the vine before becoming a pie shared in a celebration of gratitude. The story uses the cumulative rhyme pattern of “The House That Jack Built” to connect each step in the growing process. Back matter extends the harvest theme with facts about pumpkins and their pollinators, plus a pumpkin pie recipe, bringing together seasonal storytelling, nature, and a hands-on food tradition.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 exploring pumpkins and how they grow
  • Families looking for a Thanksgiving-themed read-aloud
  • Young readers interested in nature facts and a pumpkin pie recipe

Book overview

This is the pumpkin ripe and round that came from a seed poked into the ground.

Using "The House That Jack Built" rhyme scheme and beginning with the planting of a single seed, the journey of bringing a pumpkin to harvest comes to life for young readers. Under Molly's watchful eye and care, each stage of growth--from the seed to the sprout to the leaves to the final fruit on the vine--is showcased. And at the end, Molly's lovely pumpkin is turned into a delicious pie for one and all to share in a celebration of gratitude. All from the seed that Molly sowed.

Back matter includes fun facts about pumpkins, the important pollinators who help them grow, as well as a pumpkin pie recipe.
