Mice prepare to celebrate Halloween, first by finding pumpkins, using them for decorations, and finally unveiling a huge Jack-o-lantern! Festive illustrations on sturdy pages encourage close examination and active participation as children lift flaps to reveal hidden surprises.

When two mice fall in love with the same pumpkin, it gets twice as much care! With one mouse taking care of it by day, and another taking care of it by night, it soon becomes the biggest pumpkin ever. They discover what is happening one night and decide to work together to enter their pumpkin in a contest.
