Me and the Pumpkin Queen by Marlane Kennedy
Although Aunt Arlene tries to interest her in clothing and growing up, ten-year-old Mildred is entirely focused on growing a pumpkin big enough to win the annual Circleville, Ohio, contest, as her mother dreamed of doing before she died.
We will meet to discuss this fantastic book on Monday, October 22nd at 3:30pm in the John Clarke Children's Program Room. Copies of the book are available at the Children's Desk and must be checked out on your library card.
