Book Reviews of Pumpkin Moonshine

Book Review: Kids will love this non frightening Halloween book.
Summary: 5 Stars

My mother read this book to me as a child. It was out of print for a while, but this new printing is excellent. The illustrations (same as orginal version) are superb and the text is quaint but clever enough to keep the attention of small kids or new readers. Highly recommended for Halloween or year round.

Book Review: Pumpkin Moonshine - 60 years later!
Summary: 5 Stars

If you've never carved a "Pumpkin Moonshine" you've missed a wonderful part of Halloween. As a little girl, Tasha Tudors delightful story was a favorite of mine. My children grew up carving pumpkins, not into jack-o-lanterns, but into Pumpkin Moonshines. The "grands" now enjoy grandmothers love for the season and the wonderful "Pumpkin Moonshine" with the re-release of this beautiful little book to be loved by all.

Book Review: Pumpkin Sunshine Winners for All
Summary: 5 Stars

As always, Tasha Tudor is an award winning writer/artist. Her simplicity and detail put her in a class to herself. Although this may have been written for children, adults cannot escape the wisdom, thoughts and fun of a much simpler life. May we find that wisdom in our everyday life now replaced with things, stuff and "must see".

Book Review: Simple, old-fashioned story
Summary: 5 Stars

"Pumpkin Moonshine" is one of the first Halloween stories I can remember finding in my grade school library. The story is very, very simple, with beautiful artwork, which is probably why it was so captivating.

In the story, a little girl decides to make a "pumpkin moonshine," an old-fashioned term for what we call a Jack-o-Lantern. The girl finds a suitable pumpkin, but it rolls away down the hill, and havoc ensues!

A very nice touch is the artwork on the first letter of a word on each page. Tiny drawings weave their way around the capital letter, and subtly enhance the story.

One of Tasha Tudor's earliest published works, with her signature art style, this is book a real charmer. If you have pre-school or Grade 1-2 kids, both you and they will enjoy the story of the "Pumpkin Moonshine!"


Book Review: Tasha Tudor Treat
Summary: 5 Stars

This wonderful children's book is a delight for all ages. Enjoy the story but especially the homey yet gorgeous art work
