Review

I really like this book. So much in fact that I have read it three times. I picked the book because it was was nominated for a South Carolina book award and it was part of a students book club I was in. I picked it to read, out of all the other books that were nominated for an award, because I was interested in how to grow a giant pumpkin. I thought it would be a simple matter of just planting a pumpkin seed but there is a lot to it that I didn't know but learned in this book. I am definitely too lazy to try and grow a super large pumpkin but I enjoyed reading about Mildred and her attempts. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone!
