Publisher Comments:

"Eeny meeny, miny mumpkin . . . Which of you will be my pumpkin?" "You're it!" Mouse pointed. and#12288; The two fine friends pick their favorite pumpkins to prepare for the pumpkin carving contest that is very, very soon. Mole carves his pumpkin into a jack-o-lantern--triangles for the eyes and nose and a smile with two perfectly square teeth! But then, he worries: will Mouse copy his carved design? But, fear not! In the end, the friends share a story and, together, they use their creativity to costume up for a very sweet finale. Theodore Seuss Geisel Honor Award WinnerWong Herbert Yee is a master of combining text and illustration for this age group. His onomatopoeic language paired with his vibrantly stylized illustrations make for an early reader series that is both artful and accessible.

Synopsis:

Fireman small has a busy day rescuing people and fighting fires . . . and it's not over yet. Just as he's preparing for a good night's sleep, the fire bell rings yet again.

Synopsis:

"Rhymed verse and tidy watercolors describe how a fireman rescues Farmer Pig's cat and all the other animals in town."
