Basically a revamp of How the Grinch Stole Christmas！ but for a different holiday。 Nice message about being able to have fun even if your costume isn't elaborate or impressive。 Basically a revamp of How the Grinch Stole Christmas！ but for a different holiday。 Nice message about being able to have fun even if your costume isn't elaborate or impressive。 。。。more

3/5 I didn’t really care for this and neither did my kids。 It was trying too hard to teach an SEL lesson of community and togetherness。 In fact the pumpkin seed blatantly says it。 Then the seed has a change of heart and realization。 I can’t exactly put my finger on what we didn’t like but the whole thing was just kind of so-so。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 Such a cute book！ I am a huge fan of The Bad Seed books and this one did not disappoint。 Of course Mr。 Seed starts off in a baaaaaaad mood but with the advice of a Pumpkin Seed he gets into the spirit of Halloween。 So glad I preordered this book。

Forgot I had preordered this one and then it showed up today to my delight and it didn't disappoint。 We have a real following of Jory John and Pete Oswald fans at our school and I knew this would be a fun one for Halloween。 I don't do a lot of "holiday" related books， but I think this will be a fun addition for kids for sure！ Who can resist the bad seed？！ And there's a message in here to be discussed and thought about as well that I think will hit home with a lot of kids。 The illustrations are f Forgot I had preordered this one and then it showed up today to my delight and it didn't disappoint。 We have a real following of Jory John and Pete Oswald fans at our school and I knew this would be a fun one for Halloween。 I don't do a lot of "holiday" related books， but I think this will be a fun addition for kids for sure！ Who can resist the bad seed？！ And there's a message in here to be discussed and thought about as well that I think will hit home with a lot of kids。 The illustrations are fabulous as always！！！ 。。。more

Okay so I have read The Bad Seed at LEAST 30 times （not exaggerating。 I read it to every class- 26 of them - the year it was a black eyed susan nominee （2018-2019） plus it's in the library curriculum now for grade two so I've read like 4 additional times in both the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 school year， plus kids just love it and it's fun to read aloud so yeah）I think that is why this was a bit of a let down for me。 I do like that this book has the same "voice" as the Bad Seed。 I also like that t Okay so I have read The Bad Seed at LEAST 30 times （not exaggerating。 I read it to every class- 26 of them - the year it was a black eyed susan nominee （2018-2019） plus it's in the library curriculum now for grade two so I've read like 4 additional times in both the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 school year， plus kids just love it and it's fun to read aloud so yeah）I think that is why this was a bit of a let down for me。 I do like that this book has the same "voice" as the Bad Seed。 I also like that there is a bit of a growth mindset （ish） lesson at the end （this one is a little more like "don't sweat the small stuff"）。 But I feel like the lesson wasn't reached as organically as in the Bad Seed。 Also， it was very text heavy。 Bummer。 。。。more
