Pete Oswald
Summary
Celebrate the spooky season with the grumpiest pumpkin around in this hilarious and heartwarming story from Pete Oswald, the New York Times bestselling artist of The Good Egg.
Meet Jack. He usually loves Halloween. But not this year. This year, nothing is going his way. So when it’s time for pumpkin carving, he gives his pumpkin a grumpy face.
Meet Grumpkin. He has to spend Halloween sitting on the front stoop, feeling dark and hollow.
Will this be a lousy Halloween? Or will one grumpy boy and one grumpy pumpkin find a way to shine?
Join beloved, bestselling creator Pete Oswald for an uproariously tricky treat that proves all it takes is one small spark to turn a dark mood around.
