The Misfit Pumpkin knows he is different from all the other pumpkins in the pumpkin patch, because the pumpkins in Farmer Jim's field keep telling him so. They make fun of him telling him he will never be chosen for a Jack-O-Lantern this year. The Misfit Pumpkin is a story for everyone. It was written specifically for all children that perceive being different is unacceptable for one reason or another.Our little pumpkin is fat and orange, but not round. This story helps children to realize being different doesn't make an individual a misfit, but wonderfully unique. It teaches the importance of accepting everyone for their differences, as well as, for their similarities. This story is excellent for reading aloud, because it stimulates imagination. It entertains those little ones who love the fun of Halloween, and at the same time teaches the value of acceptance. Children will love how the little pumpkin triumphs over adversity.
