Can a book about people who grow giant pumpkins be more of a page-turner than a James Patterson novel? And the answer is . . . YES! Backyard Giants by Susan Warren mostly follows a father and son team as they attempt to set the yearly record for largest pumpkin. And by large, we're talking over well over 1,000 pounds. Will they finally win? Will their pumpkins fall apart at the last minute (as happened before)?
You'll never look at a pumpkin the same way again.
