PreS—This mother-daughter team's classic title (1989) has new cover art that punches up the fall colors, adds a chicken, and features apples and pumpkins in the foreground. The text's typeface has changed, but everything else is kept in its original perfection so that yet another generation of youngsters will celebrate autumn, from orchard visits to trick-or-treating.—Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA
New ed., 1989, Macmillan. A girl visits Comstock Farm with her parents to pick a bushel of apples and cut a pumpkin from the vine. At home they carve a jack-o'-lantern, then the girl goes trick-or-treating. Simple sentences and friendly art make this a perennial preschool favorite. This new edition sports a fresh cover and reset type.
