Publisher's Synopsis
"I wasn't always a brilliant orange with a hint of yellow, a globe with a perfectly curved stem. I came from very humble beginnings. "My first memory was of a man named John, walking through a field whistling and gently placing a small part of me into the cool, damp earth.

Follow Jack O'Lantern on his journey from tiny seed to big and beautiful orange pumpkin. See the world through the "eyes" of Jack as he grows and finally leaves the pumpkin patch for his own adventure. The Life Cycle Series books, including The Life of Bud and Daisy, are engaging tools for classroom or individual reading, and perfect for ages 8 and up. Includes a fun lesson for home or school, too!
