Another fantastic story from Valerie Thomas and Korky Paul. I have read it to my class and they enjoyed it. If you love Winnie the Witch then this is a must have in your Winnie the Witch story collection. Great story for Halloween time.

Description

Winnie and Wilbur: The Amazing Pumpkin, the new edition, is available on ISBN: 9780192748201. Winnie and Wilbur love their vegetables. They are regulars at the weekly farmers' market to stock up on their greens, but bringing them back home on a broomstick proves to be rather hazardous. So Winnie decides to grow her own and digs a vegetable patch in her garden. Not having the patience of a true gardener, she uses a little magic to speed up the growing process ...only to end up with a garden overrun by enormous vegetables. She uses her giant pumpkin to make pumpkin pies, pumpkin scones, creamy pumpkin soup for Wilbur, and dish after dish of roast pumpkin. She invites all her neighbours to help themselves to pumpkin, too. Eventually the yummy orange flesh is all gone but the shell remains. What can Winnie do with it? She waves her wand, shouts 'Abracadabra!', and something amazing happens ...
