Written by Jeff Mayer
Very soon it will be pumpkin patch time,
But the Little Green Pumpkin just won’t leave his vine!
All the other pumpkins in the patch want to be chosen by a child, but not Little Greenie! He’s scared to go to a new place with new people. He wants to stay rooted right where he grew up. But just because change can sometimes be scary, that doesn’t mean it can’t be exciting too!
