This book is delightful with many beautiful colors, family oriented, very educational with excellent instructions on growing a gourd, and great resources (Aunt Vi of course)! I thoroughly enjoyed this book and now, I want to grow gourds also. The illustrations were perfect and the story delightful. Thank you Graham O. and Sue Brightly for a one of a kind storybook!

What a wonderfully original book! As a grammy and former teacher, I read a lot of children's books, and this is one of the best. I love the story and the illustrations are so colorful and full of cute details that you can look at for hours. And, best of all, it is such a fun book to read aloud.

I've done storytime for kids aged 0-7 for more years than I can say and I would definitely use this book for older children. The pictures are joyous and the story is beautifully written with age-appropriate humor. I look forward to Graham's next book!

I just love this book!!

It is well written and such cute illustrations!!

I bought one for my niece who is a Kinder garden teacher, and one for myself I have been doing Gourd Art for 26 years.

If I had young children I would recommend you need to purchase this book for them!!
