Winnie's Amazing Pumpkin
Korky Paul
Winnie the Witch loves pumpkin, but her haul from the farmers’ market falls off her broomstick on the way home. She decides to grow her own and tries to speed up the process by using magic – leading to disastrous consequences before it all comes right in the end. The story fits precisely with the clever pictures, which illustrate all the madcap events perfectly. Winnie’s Amazing Pumpkin is far too busy having fun to deliver laboriously crafted pro-social messages, although sharing and friendship seamlessly fit in with the storyline.
