About the Book and Soundscape

The Ugly Pumpkin has waited all through October for someone to take him home, but no one wants him. He doesn't look like other pumpkins. So the lonely Ugly Pumpkin leaves the patch to find a place to fit in. By the time Thanksgiving arrives, he discovers the truth about who he is--but it's not what he expected!
