I read Sage's Song of the Pumpkinheads series, written by Karen Kilpatrick
I received a free digital copy through NetGalley
4 stars
I have never heard of the Pumpkinheads before. I chose this book because I am always looking for great song picture books for my sing along story time. I am not sure if this one will work. It is a bit too young for the preschoolers but too long for the toddlers. My first thought was that I would be able to give each child a tambourine to play for the drum part. They would enjoy that, but I wouldn't be able to recreate the other sounds as well, and the kids might not stop playing the instruments while I read.
I think this one would work for older toddlers or a class of young preschoolers. They would be able to make the sounds with me, and that would be fun. The illustrations are simple and colorful. They fit the story well. This would also be a great book to read to your child, especially one that likes music or making sounds. What kid doesn't like those things? A good book.
