Drawn from life, esteemed author-illustrator Geisert\'s new picture book tells the fantastical story of a real-life town in Iowa brought to a halt by a profusion of pumpkins.
But with pumpkins growing around every street corner, and over every building, what\'s a town to do? In these pages, Geisert imagines the town of Elkader overrun by the pumpkins that grow on Pumpkin Island, which sits in the Turkey River, right outside his kitchen window..
Two pumpkins? Okay.
One pumpkin? Fine.
Elkader, Iowa, is the perfect picture of small town life--that is, until the pumpkins arrive.
