You Are My Little Pumpkin Pie
Illustrated by Talitha Shipman
Little, Brown

         Your scent is so delightful,
       Like cinnamon and spice.
       Each time I kiss your tender cheek  
       I have to kiss it twice.

"The cover of this delectable-looking book shows a bibbed baby tucking into what for many kids is the best treat on the Thanksgiving table. A pie tin shines with silvery corrugated paper, raised lettering glitters with pink sparkles, and Talitha Shipman’s palette of mango orange, bright purple and chocolate brown is good enough to eat. Inside, pumpkins hide in each seasonal scene of babies and their doting parents. On one page, they decorate a girl’s barrettes; on another they line a row-house stoop; children can have fun pointing them out. Those with a super-sweet tooth will find the text to their taste."
        ​—New York Times Online Book Review
"Share this sweet treat with baby for some serious bonding time."  
       —Kirkus
"A cozy and comforting read with bedtime book potential."
        —Publishers Weekly
