Nice change of pace from the more common Halloween spooky story for kids." </em> Barbara Mojica, children's author</p><p> </p><p><em>"...Gorian is superb in her usage of descriptive language. Readers are transported with the family and Rosco to the pumpkin patch. Readers can visualize the autumn leaves and fall crops of corn, pumpkins and apples.

The illustrations are well done and add to the enjoyment of this tale."</em> Beverly Ann McCall, Amazon reviewer</p><p> </p><p><em>"...Join Rosco as he meets his first grumpy goose, a couple of Halloween bullies, and an elusive bunny.
