Pumpkins, Pumpkins Everywhere - Parragon Book Buddies Review

We are still really excited about being Parragon Book Buddies as both boys love their books and receiving a new book to read and review each month is a real treat for all of us.

This months book arrived and we were so excited as it was a book to get us in the Halloween mood and we couldn't wait to get reading it. As the boys have 2 bedtime stories I decided to wait until bedtime to surprise them with the book.


The front cover is great and the moon is sparkly so very eye catching and makes the book very exciting to toddlers. I put the book in Finley's room and once the boys were in their pyjamas I let them jump into bed and have a look through the book before I read it to them. They were so excited and both sat there looking through the book and spotting all the pumpkins.




The book is great for my two boys who are 2 & 4 as its not a long story book, it is quick and snappy with engaging editorial and pictures. The book is all about trick or treating for the pumpkins and the describes the pumpkins by how they are carved.



I could tell that they liked the book because they were quiet during the whole story and didn't interrupt once. We have since read it every night after I ask the boys to choose their book and this one always comes out.

Finley has yet to have ever been excited about Halloween but this book has made him very excited about the pumpkins, every time we go into the supermarket and see them he wants to buy one. When we go to carve the pumpkin I may get him to chose one from the book, I hope he doesn't chose one too complicated.

As with all Parragon books that we have read the pages are great quality and very durable for children. Such a great book to get the children excited for Halloween.
